About this opportunity

Thanks to the generous support of the Gibson Trust, a number of bursaries are available to support Northern Ireland-domiciled students enrolling to the MSc Leadership for Sustainable Development and MSc Leadership for Sustainable Rural Development programmes. The bursaries are intended to support access to postgraduate study for individuals committed to developing the leadership skills needed to drive sustainability transitions across sectors. The bursary covers the full cost of tuition fees for a one-year Masters programme. Where demand exceeds the number of bursaries available, selection criteria will be applied, including the class of undergraduate degree attained and the strength and relevance of the supporting personal statement. Recipients must maintain good academic standing throughout the duration of the programme, and the bursary may be withdrawn and reallocated if a recipient fails to meet the programme or bursary conditions.
