In the School of Science and Engineering (SSE) we believe that exceptional academic ability should be recognised and rewarded.
The Dean’s Scholarships offer the opportunity for outstanding research students to participate in some of the most exciting areas of interdisciplinary research carried out at the School.
To recognise academic achievement and to attract the best students from across the globe, the Dean is offering a range of scholarships towards course tuition fees for international (non-EU) fee-paying students with excellent academic qualifications.
The awards will be judged on a 1000 word statement supplied by each candidate that should state clearly how they meet the scholarship aims. Applicants demonstrate through their ideas how they would use their specific knowledge, experience and background to:
- ensure that the research aims of their project are met and exceeded;
- fully align their project with the School’s research strategy;
- act as an ambassador for SSE and Glasgow Caledonian, and ensure dissemination and wider impact arising from their research work.
SSE has up to three Dean’s Scholarships of £3,800 per year available for academically outstanding students who applied and have been accepted onto one of the School’s full time PhD Programmes. The Dean’s Scholarship can only be applied for at entry into the PhD research programme, and it is awarded for a total of three years pending annual renewal upon satisfactory performance.
For all successful applicants, the total scholarship will be awarded in the form of a partial fee-waiver against their annual fees.
