£7,500 Global Development and Humanitarian Practice Scholarship

The Faculty's postgraduate scholarships are awards made towards tuition fees only. It is therefore important that applicants clearly identify how they intend to raise the additional funding necessary to cover living costs, travel, textbooks, other ancillary costs and any additional fees, should the tuition fees be higher than the amount of scholarship available.

Applicants failing to comply with these application procedures will not be considered for the scholarship.

A reserve list may be drawn up in case any of the selected applicants do not take up the offer of a scholarship.

Full and part-time students undertaking the MA Global Development and Humanitarian Practice from September 2025-2026 are able to apply for this scholarship. It is a single award of £7,500 to be used to contribute to their course fees.
