4. Transkribus Scholarship

We are delighted to introduce the Transkribus Scholarship Programme. It is designed to support and encourage aspiring scholars which is one of our core values.

By offering a scholarship funded by us, we aim to promote research in historical documents and welcome students and educators from various fields of study. As part of this initiative, participants will have the opportunity to access the features of Transkribus, which provide the necessary resources for in-depth academic inquiry.

To be eligible for a scholarship, applicants must propose a specific project that they intend to work on using the subscription and accompanying credits awarded to them.
