Wolfson College Scholarships in Biological and Physical Sciences

Funded by generous gifts from alumni and friends of Wolfson College, these scholarships provide financial support for MPhil and PhD students in Physical and Biological Sciences at the University of Cambridge. The scholarships offer between £5,000 and £10,000 annually for the duration of the course. Approximately 4 scholarships are awarded each year based on academic merit. For 2026/2027 entry, preference may be given to students undertaking courses in Chemistry, Pharmacology, Physics, Computing, PDN (Physiology, Development & Neuroscience), or Medical Research with a focus on passive immunotherapy. Preference may also be given to students whose research topics are relevant to one of the College's current Interdisciplinary Research Hubs in Global Health, Sustainability & Conservation, Gender, or Race, Ethnicity & Cultural Heritage. No separate application is required; applicants should list Wolfson College as their first choice on the admissions application form to guarantee consideration.
