Innovation Scholarships

Latest deadline: 30 June 2013

Please note that the class size for this MA is restricted and that the programme may close for applications before 30 June if all places are filled earlier.

All students selected to become a member of our Innovation Scholarship Programme for the academic year 2013/2014 will receive a £5,500 scholarship. Candidates in receipt of these scholarships will be helping us break new ground in the way degree programmes are taught and assessed. Scholarship holders will act not just as students, but critical friends and collaborators, pushing us to excel and telling us where we need to improve. We’ll ask you to participate in two marketing activities, provide ongoing constructive feedback on the programme and to attend a maximum of two focus groups.

You do not need to apply for these scholarships. All candidates who have applied for a place and have been made an offer for 2013/14 will automatically receive an Innovation Scholarship in the form of a partial fee waiver. We strongly advise you to to apply for a place as early as possible however, as places on the programme are limited.

Innovation scholars will pay tuition fees of £7,000 (home) and £13,500 (international) instead of the full fees listed in the table above.
