Research student funding
In the School of Education funding tends to be for PhD study. For information about sources of funding for Masters programmes visit the University Scholarships and Student Funding Services pages.
The principal source of funding for UK/EU research students is the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). For some inter-disciplinary topics, UK/EU students may be eligible to apply for an award from the Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS) or the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

Normally only those students who are UK citizens, domiciled within the UK, are eligible for a full award. In some cases candidates who are nationals of a member state of the EU and are resident in the UK may also be eligible for full awards. Potential applicants should consult the websites of the various agencies for further details.
