The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) is calling for applications from individuals interested in conducting new research into architecture.

The RIBA Research Trust Award will make grants of up to £10,000 available to support original independent architecture research by practitioners, academics and recent graduates. The awards scheme is open to applicants interested in a wide range of subject matter relevant to the advancement of architecture, and connected arts and sciences, in the United Kingdom. Applicants based outside the UK are also eligible to apply; however the research work must in the main be undertaken within the United Kingdom.

The deadline to apply is 2 June 2014.
