Funding and scholarships

The University offers a range of Masters funding to help support you during your time studying with us.

Within our School we also have generous awards and scholarships designed to reward academic excellence.

Before you apply for any funding, you'll need to have applied to your chosen course. You can apply for more than one funding opportunity, but may have to choose which ones to accept if your applications are successful.
