Editorial Support for Underrepresented Research Topics
Are you a master’s or PhD student—or an early-career academic—working on a neglected, interdisciplinary, or underrepresented research topic? The Laura Bassi Scholarship 2025, hosted by the University of Graz, Austria, provides valuable editorial assistance to help refine your thesis, manuscript, or journal article for publication.
Offered three times annually—Spring, Summer, and Winter—this international scholarship empowers researchers across all academic fields to bring clarity and polish to groundbreaking yet often overlooked work.
Founded in 2018, the Laura Bassi Scholarship was established to promote equity in academic research by supporting work that explores themes often left out of mainstream scholarship. Instead of providing direct financial grants, the scholarship awards in-kind professional editorial services to improve the structure, coherence, and presentation of academic texts.
