Agata Sadowska wins the Manfred Ulmer Scholarship 2009
Acting on behalf of the Stiftung Wissenschaft und Gesellschaft of the University of Konstanz,
the Zukunftskolleg awards the Manfred Ulmer Scholarship to doctoral students every year.
The programme is open to doctoral students of all disciplines and pays 1,000 euros per month
over six months. It enables the scholars to bridge a financial gap between their studies and
their doctoral phase.
This year's winner of the Manfred Ulmer Scholarship is Agata Sadowska.

she finished her Master’s Degree in history with notable success. She will work on the topic:
“Remembering the Warsaw Uprising of 1944. Polish Discourses of Memory since 1945,
based on the example of the Warsaw Uprising at Home in Exile and Underground”.
