rome residency in architecture

THE ROME SCHOLARSHIP IN ARCHITECTURE is awarded to a postgraduate student in architecture or an early-career architect who has demonstrated exceptional promise, whether through their academic work or in the first stages of professional practice. The scholarship offers six months at the British School at Rome (BSR) to pursue a self-directed programme of research.

The research may focus on Rome or other parts of Italy and can take various forms, including an architectural project, a theoretical study, a historical investigation, or a combination of these approaches. The award-holder will benefit from access to the BSR’s renowned Library and Archive, while also becoming part of our vibrant community of artists and scholars, sharing in the intellectual and social exchange that is central to life at the BSR.

We welcome applications from individuals whose backgrounds are underrepresented at the BSR, including (but not limited to) people from Black, Asian, and other racially and ethnically minoritised communities.
