THE GARTSIDE REPORTS.
The Gartside Reports are the reports made by theGartside Scholars at the University of Manchester. TheGartside Scholarships were established in 1902 for alimited period, by John Henry Gartside, Esq., ofManchester. They are tenable for two years and aboutthree are awarded each year. They are open to malesof British nationality who at the date of the electionshall be over the age of eighteen years and under the ageof twenty-three years.
Every scholar must enter the University of Manchesterfor one Session for a course of study approved by theelectors. The remainder of the time covered by theScholarship must be devoted to the examination ofsubjects bearing upon Commerce or Industry in Germanyor Switzerland, or in the United States of America, orpartly in one of the above-mentioned countries and partlyin others, but the electors may on special grounds allowpart of this period of the tenure of the Scholarship to bespent in study and travel in some other country orcountries. It is intended that each scholar shall selectsome industry, or part of an industry, or some business,for examination, and investigate this comparatively inthe United Kingdom and abroad. The first year’s workat the University of Manchester is designed to preparethe student for this investigation, and it partly takes theform of directed study, from publications and by directinvestigation, of English conditions with regard to theindustrial or commercial subjects upon which researchwill be made abroad in the second year of the scholarship.Finally, each scholar must present a report, which willas a rule be published.
The value of a Scholarship is about £80 a year for thetime spent in England, £150 a year
