Postgraduate Students

Funding which is available to postgraduate students differs greatly from the funding which is available for undergraduate study. At Newcastle University, the only programmes with mandatory funding are PCGE (primary and secondary), Clinical Psychology, Applied Educational Psychology and Language Pathology.

Funding for postgraduates can come from a variety of sources and the types of funding a student could be eligible to apply for may depend upon their personal circumstances, their intended course of study and their financial situation.

Funding for postgraduate study can be very competitive so start looking for funding about 18 months before the start of your course. Many of the schemes have strict and early deadlines.
