The University of Edinburgh is home to hundreds of different societies, which are organised through the Edinburgh University Students' Association (EUSA).

At the School of History, Classics & Archaeology our societies hold events regularly - which are a great way to meet new people and get involved in exciting student-run projects - and form the hub of our student community.

Charles Mackie Student Initiative Fund 2023/24

The School supports student initiatives financially with the Charles Mackie Student Initiative Fund, awarded annually.

The Fund

The School has a small amount of money set aside each semester to support internal undergraduate student initiatives which contribute to the student experience. We are especially interested in activities that will stimulate community building.

To be eligible for this fund you must be affiliated to a School Society which is supportive of the activity you are seeking funding for. Applications will be assessed by a panel consisting of student support staff and relevant academics.

The budget for the Student Initiative Fund will be reviewed year on year depending on availability of School funds, and that the total pot to disperse each year may vary.
