About This Opportunity
The Aziz Foundation Scholarships Programme offers 100% tuition fee Masters scholarships to support British Muslims to study at UK universities. The scholarships are aimed at those who wish to advance in their careers and bring positive change to their communities and beyond. The programme seeks to support emerging leaders who have a high level of commitment to the community and who can demonstrate that they can lead and inspire in their respective field. Scholarships are focused on two key areas: Effective Advocacy and Enhancing Public Perception (facilitating better representation and contribution of Muslims to civil society to combat Islamophobia), and Community Service and Social Development (raising aspirations and standards within British Muslim communities). The scholarships are means-tested and given as Zakat, so applicants must be Zakat-eligible. Recipients are required to engage with the Foundation's alumni support programme and participate in widening participation schemes, volunteer work, or mentoring post-graduation.
