A commitment to the future of Scotland's social, economic and cultural well-being underpins the Research Awards programme of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.  Each year more than £1M is made available to exceptionally talented academics and potential entrepreneurs through the RSE.

With support from the Scottish Government and a broad range of private and charitable bodies, this highly competitive scheme enables people with good ideas, across a spectrum of disciplines, to research and develop their work, for the good of Scotland and beyond.
