About This Opportunity

The IMPACT Scholarship is offered by UCL to support applicants pursuing the Master of Public Health (MPH) program who have demonstrated financial need and lived experience of inequality. Preventing and redressing the impact of inequalities is a core philosophy of the UCL MPH program, and this scholarship reflects that commitment. The scholarship provides up to £20,500 to contribute towards tuition fees for the online MPH program. Two scholarships are available annually for students studying full-time, part-time, or through modular flexible pathways, with funding applied pro rata for non-full-time students. The scholarship is available to both home and overseas students who meet the admissions criteria for the UCL online Master of Public Health program and have submitted an application for the 2026/27 academic year. Selection is based on applicants' descriptions of how their experience of inequality has shaped them, why they should receive the scholarship, and how they will use their experience and the MPH degree to make a difference to population health in their future career.
