Research Masters (MA/MSc) Scholarships

Durham Inspired Climate Change and Polar Science Research Scholarship

Thanks to a generous donation from a Durham alumnus, the Geography Department is able to offer a scholarship for those undertaking a Masters by Research (MRes) in the field of Climate Change and/or Polar Science. The Scholarship consists of the MRes tuition fees (tbc for the coming Academic) and some minor research costs to help defray some of the costs of the project. The Scholarship is part of efforts to widen access to postgraduate study and so is aimed at students where such financial support might help promote postgraduate study.
