There are scholarships and grants for international students who wish to study in Britain. There is a lot of competition for a limited number of awards, but it is worthwhile applying for the ones relevant to you. You should begin your research early as some scholarships require you to apply at least a year before your degree starts.

Scholarships and funding

The University and Edinburgh Law School offer a range of scholarships for our research degrees. There are also a selection of external funding opportunities that you may be eligible to apply to. Scholarship and funding opportunities listed on this web page are for entry in the 2024-25 academic year.

If you are intending to apply for a scholarship offered by the Law School or University we advise applying to your programme (PhD or LLM by Research) at least two weeks before the scholarship closing date.

Deadline: 20th May 2024

Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD position on a project entitled “Taming the Dark Energy of EU Law: The European Union’s Unwritten Constitution”. The successful applicant will work with Professor Niamh Nic Shuibhne at Edinburgh Law School.

Taming the Dark Energy of EU Law is a Leverhulme Trust-funded four-year project. It explores the unwritten constitution produced by the specific and essential characteristics of the EU and of EU law that are not expressly present in the EU Treaties, including primacy, mutual trust, and autonomy. It adopts a dark energy metaphor to underline that these specific and essential characteristics expanded to fill empty Treaty spaces, establishing the deep structure of EU law and propelling its significance while remaining, for the most part, textually invisible – a constitutional energy detected, but not yet well understood.

The project studies the EU’s unwritten constitution in a holistic way, building on perspectives that discuss, and question, the extent to which the internal and external spheres of EU action are (and should) be legally distinct. In this way, it aims to retune the relationship between the written and unwritten dimensions of EU constitutional law to improve internal and external accountability.

The PhD will be carried out under the lead supervision of the Principal Investigator, Professor Niamh Nic Shuibhne.

Complementing the work of a postdoctoral researcher on the EU as an international subject , the PhD researcher will examine how the EU as an international actor is ‘trading’ its specific and essential characteristics through its engagement with the wider world and assess the appropriateness of such external sharing through a case-study method. The PhD project will be guided by the project’s overarching themes (invisibility, accountability, and shareability) but enable the researcher to develop their own thesis ideas and especially the originality and significance of their findings and arguments over the course of the studentship.

This opportunity is open to candidates in law, with particular emphasis on prior study of the legal dimensions of EU external action.

This scholarship will pay tuition fees and provide an annual stipend in line with UKRI rates (approximately £19,237 per annum). The stipend will be paid in equal monthly instalments for 3.5 years, subject to satisfactory progress. Additional research funding will also be available to support training and development.

Candidate profile

The successful applicant will have:

  • Excellent grades in both undergraduate and postgraduate taught degrees (at least one of which must be in law).
  • A background, or clear demonstrable interest, in EU constitutional law and the legal dimensions of the EU’s external action.
  • Proficiency in English (both oral and written). For candidates whose first language is not English, we require an overall IELTS score of 7.0 with at least 7.0 in the writing component and 6.5 in each of the other components (or other acceptable English language qualification at the equivalent standard).
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.

Application Information

Applicants should apply via the University’s admissions portal (EUCLID) and select the PhD Law programme.  Apply here.

Applications should be submitted by 5pm on 20th May 2024 . Interviews will take place (online) on 20th June. The successful applicant will be expected to start the PhD in September 2024.

Applicants must submit:

  • All degree transcripts and certificates (and certified translations if applicable).
  • Evidence of English Language capability (where applicable).
  • A short research proposal (max 2 pages) outlining your approach to the proposed research project (focus on identifying research questions for your proposed thesis and explaining why these questions matter).
  • A full CV cover letter describing your background, suitability for the PhD, and research interests (max 2 pages).
  • Two recent references (note that it is your responsibility to ensure that reference letters are received before the deadline).

Please note that the proposal, CV, and cover letter should be uploaded as a single, combined document within the application portal.

Only complete applications (i.e. those that are not missing the above documentation) will progress forward to the academic selectors for further consideration.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is an area of AI operating at the intersections of computer science, linguistics, and interaction design that has rapidly jumped from the research lab to routine deployment in-the-world. Mature NLP systems offer powerful capabilities to create new products, services, and interactive experiences grounded in natural language, and underpin much of the current excitement around generative AI. However, they also bring significant challenges to responsible and trustworthy design, adoption and deployment.

Our students will gain the skills, knowledge and experience to study and design real-world applications of NLP that are responsible and trustworthy by design, in a highly interdisciplinary training environment hosted by the new Edinburgh Futures Institute. The training programme brings together world leading researchers at the University of Edinburgh in informatics, design, linguistics, speech science, psychology, law, philosophy, information science, and digital humanities, who will supervise students and guide them in their training and learning.

The CDT will be seeking to fund up to 12 studentships to start next academic year. We are looking for applicants with background in or related to:

  • Computer science, informatics and artificial intelligence
  • Design, human computer interaction and human centred computing
  • Language, linguistics and speech sciences
  • Law, governance and regulation
  • Digital Humanities and Information Science

These are just indicative, and we are interested in applicants who come from any background or discipline with relevant skills and expertise that connect to our five Skills Domains. Our ambition is to recruit a diverse cohort of students coming from different disciplines and backgrounds, who are excited by the prospects of working with each-other and on real-world applications of NLP.

To find out more information on the programme, funding available and its benefits take a look at the CDT website.

One or more scholarships are available for postgraduate research in Scots private law at the University of Edinburgh for a period of one year leading to the degree of LLM by Research (ie by a thesis of up to 30,000 words). The scholarships are offered by the Edinburgh Legal Education Trust, which was formed in 1996 for the advancement of legal education in Scotland. The Trustees wish to award a scholarship or scholarships for study beginning in September 2024. 

Eligibility

The scholarships are open to anyone who, by the start of the LLM programme, holds an honours degree in law, or an ordinary degree in law plus an honours degree in a different discipline, and who is accepted by the University of Edinburgh for the degree of LLM by Research. Further details about postgraduate study at Edinburgh may be obtained from the Postgraduate Office, School of Law ( www.law.ed.ac.uk). An application to the Trust may be made in advance of being accepted by the University of Edinburgh.

Choice of topic

Applicants are free to choose their own topic. The emphasis, however, should be on legal doctrine rather than on, for example, legal theory or socio-legal issues. Historical or comparative perspectives are welcome. Two possible research projects (one on contract law and the other on the law of delict) can be found here and applicants are welcome to choose, or adapt, one of those. 

Progression to the PhD

The LLM by Research can (but need not) be used as a gateway to further study for the degree of PhD. Indeed it is often possible to treat the LLM as the first year of study for a PhD by switching to the PhD degree during the year spent on the LLM. For students who make this switch, funding for the full three years of the PhD will often be made available by the Edinburgh Legal Education Trust.

Value 

The scholarship comprises fees at home students’ rate and a maintenance award (currently £18,622). In addition, a limited amount of assistance may be given by the Trust in respect of research expenses, but this will not normally exceed £400 in a year. Fees will be paid by the Trust directly to the University of Edinburgh. The maintenance allowance will be paid in four equal instalments on 15 September, 15 December, 15 March and 15 June.

Applications and closing date

Candidates must first apply for admission to the Law LLM by Research Programme. Further details on how to apply can be found on our website.

Once you have applied for admission to the Programme, please complete the Edinburgh Legal Education Trust Scholarship Application Form and send it to [email protected] by the closing date of 6 May 2024.

Applications to this studentship are closed.

The Edinburgh Futures Institute’s Centre for Technomoral Futures and Edinburgh Law School are delighted to invite applications for this PhD studentship, funded by Baillie Gifford, to begin in the academic year 2024/2025. 

These studentships, which are open to UK, EU and international applicants, will support rigorous interdisciplinary PhD research into the ethical challenges posed by the growing use of data and artificial intelligence.

Deadline: 5pm Monday 18 December 2023 

Supervisors:

  • Dr Emily Postan, Edinburgh Law School
  • Secondary supervisor, to be confirmed 

The Project 

The project will address the ethical significance of new and reconfigured health-related categories - such as diagnoses, disease risk, or precision care profiles - generated by machine learning (ML), beyond their utility for their intended clinical purposes. It will explore the ways in which these ML-generated health categories do, or could, function as ways – for example – of identifying and distinguishing groups of people, or conceptualising health and (dis)ability, in wider social contexts. The project will take a normative approach to these questions. In doing so, it will not only identify and characterise particular social roles of ML-generated categories, but also why these roles are significant from ethical or social justice perspectives. For example, it could ask how these categories might:

  • contribute to addressing, or exacerbating, health inequalities;
  • affect social cohesion or solidarity;
  • reshape public health priorities, institutions, or environments; or
  • generate new, or deconstruct existing, axes of power, discrimination, or oppression. 

It will consider how to weigh social impacts (such as those suggested in the indicative list above) alongside the intended or hoped-for health benefits of ML applications. And it will explore how associated risks and benefits might be managed through mechanisms such as the design, ethical oversight, or regulation of healthcare applications of ML. 

This project will make explicit the need to look beyond existing dominant themes in health AI ethics, such as clinical reliability safety, explicability, and trustworthiness, to take in wider relational and social considerations. It will contribute to AI ethics more broadly, by offering a richer range of ways to think about what ‘good’ and ‘bad’ ML-generated categories might look like, and by highlighting ways in which domain-specific applications of AI could have socially pervasive ramifications. 

Funding  

The studentship is open to home, EU and international students. The award includes:

  • 4 years stipend at UKRI rates (estimated to be in the region of £18,622 for 2024/25);
  • tuition fees;
  • annual research support budget of £2,000. 

All scholarship awards are subject to candidates successfully securing admission to a PhD programme within the University of Edinburgh. 

Candidate Profile  

Applicants may come from a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary backgrounds.

  • A strong academic track record with a 2:1 or higher in a relevant undergraduate degree, or its equivalent if outside the UK; and a Masters degree with at least 60% in the taught component and 65% in the dissertation (or international equivalent).
  • Experience of prior study or experience in bioethics, or other domains of applied ethics relevant to this project, ideally to a postgraduate level.
  • A demonstrable interest in, and knowledge of, ethical, social, legal, and governance issues relating to healthcare, public health, health data, or health technologies.
  • An ability to communicate effectively orally, in writing, and through social media for various audiences (e.g. academic publications, practitioners and policy-makers, users of services).
  • Prior study or experience in data science, digital methods, and/or innovative methods is desirable, but not essential. 

They will also:

  • Demonstrate an ability to manage self and workload within competing deadlines.
  • Demonstrate a strong interest in multidisciplinary research, teaching, and collaboration with partners within and beyond academia.
  • Demonstrate an ability to work with people in different roles and organisations.

New scholarships will help attract overseas research students to Swansea

  • News Archive
  • Information for Journalists
  • Information for Staff

Students in Swansea University library: there will be up to 70 of the new scholarships available each year.

Swansea University has launched scholarships in a wide range of subjects for overseas postgraduate PhD-level students applying for entry in September 2024 who can demonstrate excellence in academic achievement.

The scholarships will qualify holders to be responsible for the Home component of the fee only, so they pay the same rate as UK students for the duration of their programme of study,

There will be up to 70 of these scholarships available each year.  They are known as Swansea University International Postgraduate Research Excellence Scholarship (SUIPRES).  

SUIPRES scholarships are open to overseas PhD and Professional Doctorate applicants who would normally pay the international rate of tuition fees.  The scholarships will be awarded on merit, to applicants who can demonstrate excellence in academic achievement.

To demonstrate excellence, applicants would have to give details of their academic track record, as well as other activities that may be relevant, such as prizes awarded, outreach activities, or teaching experience.

Scholarships are available for the following programmes:

Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (FHSS) :

  • Department of Politics, Philosophy and International Relations: Politics, International Relations, Development Studies/International Development, Philosophy
  • Sociology and Criminology
  • Digital Media/Digital Humanities
  • Classics, Ancient History and Egyptology
  • Applied Linguistics

Faculty of Science and Engineering (FSE) : all PhD/Professional Doctorate programmes

Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Science (FMHLS) : selected programmes to be determined.

Candidates who are awarded SUIPRES scholarships will be charged fees aligned to the UK rate per year, instead of the international rate. Information on tuition fees is available under the course details on these pages.

Who can apply:

The scholarship is open to overseas applicants who:

  • are commencing PhDs or Professional Doctorates in September 2024
  • would normally pay the international rate of tuition fees
  • can demonstrate excellence in academic achievement. 

The scheme is not available to current PhD/Professional Doctorate students or candidates who are fully sponsored by a third party.  It is not open for Master level courses.

How to apply:

There is no separate application procedure for the SUIPRES scholarship.  Those who wish to apply should indicate within the standard application for their course that they would like to be considered for this scheme. 

Applicants will then be informed in their offer letter whether or not they would also be eligible for a SUIPRES Scholarship.

Applicants must confirm that they have sufficient funds to cover the remaining fees for the whole period of registration as well as to cover their living costs.

For information, please contact the appropriate faculty for the course you are applying for:

Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences:

For programmes in the School of Culture and Communication:  [email protected] ;

For programmes in the School of Social Sciences:  [email protected]

Professor Gert Aarts, Deputy Pro-Vice Chancellor for Postgraduate Research said:

“Postgraduate research students are central to the research culture and environment at Swansea University, irrespective of their country of origin. With a large international student and staff community, doctoral researchers coming to Swansea can expect excellent support for their research projects and training, as well as the chance to enjoy our warm welcome and our enviable location between the mountains and the sea.

This scheme shows our commitment to support excellent international research students, maintaining our tradition of being an outward-facing and open place to carry out research.

We encourage anyone eligible who is planning to apply for a place to also specify that they wish to be considered for one of these scholarships.”

Scotland's Saltire Scholarships

The Scottish Government, in partnership with Scottish Higher Education institutions, is offering a number of scholarships for postgraduate one year Masters study in any subject offered by the University.

Each scholarship will amount to £8,000 and will be tenable for one academic year. The award will be deducted from your tuition fees.

These scholarships are supported and funded by the Scottish Government in partnership with the University of Edinburgh.

Scholars will be expected to participate in a number of activities throughout the academic year in addition to their course of study, including welcome and end of year events and the promotion of Scotland and Scottish Higher Education.

Eligibility

The scholarships will be awarded to citizens who are permanently and ordinarily resident in Canada, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Pakistan, and the USA, and who are accepted for admission on a full-time basis for a postgraduate one year Masters programme of study at the University of Edinburgh in subjects related to the following themes:

  • Creative Industries
  • Healthcare and medical sciences
  • Renewable and clean energy

Please note that applicants for online distance learning Masters programmes will not be considered for this award.

Applicants should already have been offered a place at the University of Edinburgh and should have firmly accepted that offer by the scholarship closing date. 

Applicants should not have completed an undergraduate degree in Scotland.

Selection Criteria

The scholarship will be awarded on the basis of academic excellence. Candidates must have, or expect to obtain, the international equivalent of a UK first class or 2:1 Honours degree at undergraduate level.
