Women DJs Livestream: A Fundraiser in Support of the Gazelle Twin Scholarship
The Gazelle Twin Scholarship for Women in Music Technology is available to a woman, trans or non-binary applicant taking up a place on a Music or Music Technology BA at the University of Sussex in 2021.
This new scholarship has been created to encourage women, trans and non-binary students to pursue a career in the field of music, starting with a degree from the University, whose music department values diverse backgrounds, experimentation and different musical styles.
The scholarship, which is funded by University of Sussex Music Department alumni, will grant one student a monetary gift of £500 in their first year at Sussex, money which could make a huge difference to a student in need of equipment to pursue their musical interests.
