School awards for MSc/PhD entry in 2015

Doctoral Scholarships

Applicants that hold a UK first-class honours degree (or overseas equivalent) in a relevant field and a postgraduate masters degree of a similar calibre may be eligible to apply for one of the School’s Doctoral Scholarships with an annual stipend and EU tuition fees.

The value of the stipend will match that offered by the Research Councils for 2015/16 (this value is still to be determined but was £13,863 in 2014/15). The School will offer up to three awards.

Masters Scholarships

Alternatively, applicants that hold a UK first-class honours degree (or overseas equivalent) in a relevant field and now seek to advance to postgraduate masters study may be eligible for one of the School’s Masters Scholarships.

The School will offer up to 6 awards worth up to £7,000 per annum.
