Scholarships at Universidad de Strathclyde

We offer several scholarships for our Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences applicants joining postgraduate taught programmes in academic year 2022/23.

All self-funded, international (non-EU) fee-paying offer holders with strong academic qualifications are encouraged to apply. Please note - you must hold an offer to a full-time postgraduate taught degree programme starting in September 2022 before your scholarship application will be considered.

If you're applying for a postgraduate taught degree programme, you'll receive a scholarship award equivalent to a 20% reduction of your tuition fees, which will typically be £3,000 - £3,750.

In addition to this, we have a limited number of Dean’s International Excellence Awards for our postgraduate taught applicants. These scholarships are worth £4,000 - £5,000 and will be offered to exceptional applicants at postgraduate taught level. Applicants need to only submit one application and will be considered for all levels of postgraduate taught scholarships.

Please note that the awards cannot be combined, you will be considered for either the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences International Scholarship Postgraduate Taught or the Dean’s International Excellence Award.
