Research Council Funding

A large proportion of postgraduate students are funded by one of the UK Research Councils. Successful UK applicants receive fees and maintenance support while EU students are awarded a fees-only grant. If your programme is eligible for Research Council funding you will need to contact the relevant Council directly, Competition for these awards is intense and you are advised to apply early. For some of the University’s postgraduate programmes you may need confirmation that you have been awarded funding before you can register as a postgraduate.
