School of Modern Languages and Cultures Departmental MA Scholarship

The School of Modern Languages and Cultures (SMLC) will award up to two Master's scholarships to outstanding applicants wishing to commence full-time study on one of our one-year taught MA courses in Autumn 2022.

The scholarships are intended to facilitate access to Master's level study in Modern Languages and Cultures for academically gifted students who may otherwise experience difficulty in progressing to postgraduate study.

Eligibility Criteria:

Eligible courses are:

• MA in Translation and Cultures
• MA for Research in French and Francophone Studies
• MA for Research in German Studies
• MA for Research in Hispanic Studies
• MA for Research in Italian Studies

The scholarships are for full-time study only.
Students domiciled in the UK as well as international students are eligible to apply. However, the scholarships are capped (as above) at home fees level for 2022 entry.
The scholarships cannot be deferred, or transferred to another course outside the School of Modern Languages and Cultures.
You must be self-funding.
You must have (or be expected to attain) a First or good 2.i (or international equivalent) for your undergraduate degree. Applications are welcomed from students who consider Master's study as a stepping-stone towards doctoral study, though this is not a prerequisite.
The School of Modern Languages and Cultures values equality, diversity and inclusion. Applications are welcomed from underrepresented and/or minority groups. If you are returning to study after a break (of more than 2 years) and/or have relevant professional experience, then please clarify this in your personal statement (for the course application) and/or motivational statement.
