Engineering International Masters Scholarships

The School of Engineering will offer Masters scholarships for the 2025-2026 academic session.

We are offering 3 scholarships, for the sum of £3000 each.  These awards will be tenable for one academic year and will be:

  • Automatically deducted from your tuition fee with any remaining funds being awarded towards living costs.

 

All scholarship award holders are expected to be energetic members of our postgraduate community, and will engage with opportunities to present their work to the wider student and staff body during the period covered by their award.  We offer our postgraduates a range of training and development opportunities appropriate to their programme of study.

To ensure that the scholarship is awarded to students who appropriately represent the University, we will consider applicants that best reflect and increase the diversity of the student body. This is for pedagogical reasons as well as to enhance the overall experience of enrolling at a truly international and outward looking University. We believe that diverse backgrounds and cultures bring extraordinary value to everyone’s learning experience. We therefore encourage applications from students of all backgrounds but those from underrepresented nationalities are particularly welcome. We want to inspire those in under-represented groups and we encourage applications from those who identify with any other protected characteristics which are under-represented in the student body.

Please note – if you are using protective characteristics you should refer to  Equality, Diversity & Inclusion | The University of Edinburgh
