United Kingdom Scholarships for International Research Students 2006-07

Value of Awards

The awards will cover the difference between the tuition fee for a UK/EU
postgraduate research student and the fee chargeable to an international
postgraduate student.

Eligibility Criteria

Applications are encouraged from international students commencing a full
time postgraduate research programme at the University of Exeter in the
academic session 2006-2007 or current international postgraduate =
research students in their first year of study at the University. Students
entering the third year of their programme will not be eligible for an
award.

Subject to satisfactory progress of the award holder, awards will be
renewed for a second or a third year according to the normal or remaining
length of the research programme being undertaken.
