Criteria: Must be self-financing.

Within the School of Electrical, Electronic & Computer Engineering at Newcastle University, we understand that not everyone can secure funding. So for every MSc student on one of the above programmes, who has no other funding, we have a School Taught Scholarship.

We believe this gives our fully self financing students the best start when arriving to study.

The Scholarship will be paid to you upon completion of formal registration procedures at the University. The scholarship will be paid to you by bank transfer; as soon as possible after registration.

If you have applied to study with us and you are interested in finding out if you are eligible for the school scholarship, please complete the scholarship form and submit it.

We will then check if you are eligible for the school scholarship and contact you with the outcome as soon as we can.

If you have any queries or would like further information about the School Taught Scholarship, please don't hesitate to contact: Claire.Clark@ncl.ac.uk

 

Career Development Loans

A Professional and Career Development Loan could help you pay for learning that enhances your job skills or career projects. It's a bank loan, so you'll have to pay it back once you've left your course. However, you don't pay interest for the period when you're in learning.
