Gibson-Sykora Postgraduate Taught Scholarship (International)

The Gibson-Sykora Postgraduate Taught Scholarship is available to entrant postgraduate taught students with Polish nationality and Overseas fee status at the University of St Andrews. The Gibson-Sykora Trust was established in 1988 to support Polish students at the University of St Andrews. This scholarship provides full tuition fees for one year and is based partly on financial need and academic merit. The scholarship is open to students pursuing one-year taught Masters programmes (MLitt, MSc, MRes, MPP), one-year Masters research programmes (MSc (Res) and MSt (Res)), and the first year of two-year Masters research programmes with a taught element (MPhil (taught), MFA). It is not available for doctoral degrees, postgraduate certificates or diplomas, or online programmes. If full funding for tuition fees has been secured through alternate means, all or part of the Gibson-Sykora award may be converted to maintenance in some circumstances. Award recipients are expected to attend Development-related scholarship events, including invitations to meet the donors, and submit reports throughout the period of scholarship support.
