This prestigious new scholarship programme, in collaboration with Study in Wales, is open to students from Vietnam, India, Canada, the USA and the European Union.
The Global Wales Postgraduate Scholarship Programme offers 24 scholarships, each worth £10,000, to study a full-time masters programme in Wales.
This prestigious scheme is the first scholarship of its kind in Wales and is funded by the Global Wales Programme – a partnership between the Welsh Government, Universities Wales, The British Council and the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales (HEFCW).
Each University in Wales will be offering a minimum of three £10,000 scholarships under the scheme. Global Wales scholars will be joining a network of like-minded elite international students, supported by events running throughout the year to complement their studies in Wales.
Award
Scholarships will be given in the form of a tuition fee discount and are non-transferable. No cash alternative will be offered.
If the amount of scholarship awarded is more than the cost of the tuition fees, the tuition fees will be covered in full and any remainder will not be issued.
Universities Wales reserves the right to update or amend scholarship awards without notice, based on the availability and quality of applications that are received.
