European Scholarship Portal

The European Scholarship Portal is a new and ongoing initiative to list as many fellowship/grant/scholarship funded work opportunities as possible for study in Europe in all disciplines.

It features a very easy-to-use interface. The ultimate funder the European Commission via two European academic institutions: the non-for-profit Academic Cooperation Association based in Brussels and a scholarship search company StudyPortals.

It does not claim to be comprehensive at this point but certainly lists a good many sources for support. Note that History is listed under Social Sciences.
