Stanley Ray scholarship
PhD students, and Stanley Ray Scholars, Lluís, Zheyu, and Sam tell us about their studies and the impact that the award has made.
Scholarships and awards make an enormous difference to the opportunities available to our students.
The three recipients of the Stanley Ray Scholarships share their personal experiences of the impact this award has made to them and their studies. Lluís Jerez Bertolín (MRes Late Antiquity, 2019; PhD candidate in Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology) is studying the Ancient Roman gig economy; Zheyu Lin (PhD candidate, Art History and Music) is focusing on the influence of Western art and music in China following the Cultural Revolution; and Sam Powell (PhD candidate, Egyptology) is restoring the provenance to ancient Egyptian funerary figures across UK museums.
