Postgraduate Regional Event Funding
Applications are CLOSED.
In 2026, ten postgraduate events were accepted to be held throughout the UK. These one-day events express the diversity and dynamism of the postgraduate experience.
The BSA will provide up to £1,000 support for the event, which can be used to pay for room hire, speaker expenses (i.e. travel and accommodation), lunch and refreshments, and administrative costs (i.e. printing and stationery). Please note: the funding can’t be used for speaker fees, gifts or buying any equipment or technology for the event. Organisers should plan to use the facilities and resources available at their institution.
If the anticipated event costs are likely to exceed the funding available, organisers are encouraged to seek a donation from the host institution (e.g. the use of a meeting room or a financial contribution towards refreshments), or to charge an attendance fee for the event.
The BSA will help to promote and publicise the event through a number of outlets including the BSA website and member e-newsletters.
After the event, you will also need to submit a short report detailing:
- how the funding was used (including a breakdown of all costs incurred in connection with the event); and
- any general feedback on the event itself, including final attendance numbers
If you have any queries, please email the BSA Events Team.
