The Urban Studies Foundation is a Scottish charitable organisation founded in 2008. Our aims and objectives include advancing academic research and education in the field of urban studies. We realise these outcomes primarily through the provision of grant funding for individuals and institutions engaged in groundbreaking urban research and knowledge mobilisation around the world. Below you can find out more about our aims, operations, awardees, and history.
"The USF International Fellowship has contributed enormously to my career development. Providing the opportunity to work with a world-class Mentor and university also enabled me to win a further research grant to continue researching new cities and climate action in Africa."
