Scholarship Details

The Imperial College Master's Support Scheme, which is funded by a grant from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE), is a pilot scheme for the academic year starting autumn 2014 which will allow the College to provide successful UK applicants with grants towards tuition fees and, in some cases, their living expenses. 

The scholarships are designed to encourage the best and brightest students to pursue master's programmers in the Faculties of Natural Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, and are aimed at those who might otherwise have been deterred from postgraduate study because of financial constraints.

John Neilson, Secretary & Registrar of Imperial College London, said:
"HEFCE's investment is a welcome boost to improving accessibility to Imperial's world-class postgraduate courses. We are committed to attracting the best and the brightest students from all backgrounds and this scheme will strengthen the opportunities for these students to move on to high quality employment and research careers."
