Head of Experiment R. Nørtoft Thomsen’s Scholarship for the Promotion of Danish Livestock Science*

The purpose of the scholarship is to support livestock science researchers who wish to undertake research work within the field of livestock husbandry. The scholarship is awarded to master’s students who seek support for the completion of research assignments that the scholarship board considers to be of particular relevance to livestock production. As a rule, projects concerning domesticated animals (including horses) are not considered eligible under the bylaws.

The scholarship award may be used for all types of research expenses, including necessary shorter study periods at other research institutions, but not as compensation for the scholarship recipient.

The scholarship recipient must – in a short report at the request of the scholarship board – explain the use of the scholarship as well as the research results obtained, e.g. in the form of publications on the subject.
