The Commonwealth Shared Scholarship Scheme
This is a joint initiative between the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission (with funding from the Department for International Development (DFID), and UK universities, to support scholarships for students from developing Commonwealth countries who would not otherwise be able to study in the United Kingdom.
The aim of the scheme is to assist students from developing Commonwealth countries who are of excellent academic calibre but for financial reasons would not otherwise be able to afford to study in the United Kingdom. The scheme allows them to benefit from postgraduate study at a university in the United Kingdom which will help them to contribute toward the development of their home countries.
Awards are for taught Master’s programmes and the MSc in Global Health and Development is one of only 10 degrees for which UCL accepts applications for this scheme.
If you are a candidate from a developing country in the Commonwealth we recommend that you apply for entrance in the programme as soon as possible as you will need to apply separately to the scholarship. The deadline to apply for the scholarship is to be announced. For more information click this link
The Professor Don Brothwell Scholarship
The Professor Don Brothwell Scholarship provides £3,750 towards supporting a UK/EU student in financial need studying the MSc Global Health and Development programme. Prospective MSc GHD applicants can apply through the department.
Professor Don Brothwell studied at University College London, before a career at the British Museum, the Institute of Archaeology at UCL and finally at the Department of Archaeology in York. Don was the son of ordinary parents; having left school at 16 and taken A Levels at evening class, he believed everyone should have equal opportunities, and that merit, rather than privilege, should determine people’s opportunities in life.
Further information and application details will be made available shortly.
