About this opportunity

Students from developing countries who would not otherwise be able to study in the UK can apply for Commonwealth Shared Scholarships for master's study, jointly supported by Cranfield University. The purpose is to contribute to development needs of Commonwealth countries by providing training for skilled and qualified professionals and academics who would not otherwise have been able to study in the UK. These scholarships are intended for high-quality postgraduate students from Least Developed and middle-income countries (including fragile and conflict affected states), who have not studied for a year or more in a high-income country before, who would not otherwise afford to study in the UK, and who have the potential to enhance the development of their home countries with the knowledge and leadership skills they acquire. Commonwealth Shared Scholarships are offered for selected taught full-time master's courses at Cranfield University. These scholarships do not cover PhD study, or any pre-sessional English language teaching.
