The practical and research experience they gain will benefit many other Palestinians when they return home.Scholarships The scholarships are advertised in Al-Quds and other Palestinian newspapers and on the Trust's website at the beginning of January each year. Normally, the closing date for applications is 28 February. They are open to outstanding graduates of all Palestinian universities.Starting in 1984 (initially it was called the Durham Birzeit Studentship Fund), the Trust has brought students from the West Bank and Gaza to study in a wide variety of academic departments, including Archaeology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Durham Business School , Economics, Engineering, English, Mathematics, Modern Languages, Physics and Social Work.Funding Durham University contributes significantly by offering tuition fee scholarships to the successful candidates. Funds necessary to cover the students' maintenance, travel and other costs are raised by voluntary donations from individuals, mainly current and retired staff of the University and other people in the Durham area, and through fundraising events.Praxis Books and everyclick.com are corporate donors.Patrons The Trust's Patrons are Professor Sir Kenneth Calman , Professor Ash Amin , Mr
