Funding for postgraduate study
There are many ways to fund your postgraduate studies, suitable for the type of postgraduate course or programme that you will be pursuing.
Subscribe to our postgraduate newsletter to receive updates on funding opportunities, Open Days and more.
My advice to prospective postgraduates is to do as much research into funding as possible. Take a chance when considering and applying for funding. Even if you think you might not quite meet the criteria, you might be pleasantly surprised.
