Applicants are advised to explore funding opportunities as early as possible.

Part-time students from previous years have supported their study through financial sponsorship arrangements with their employers including practitioners such as Alan Baxter & Associates and Arup Associates.

Below is a short and general list of funding opportunities available to taught postgraduate students; for other opportunities you might like to visit http://www.postgraduatestudentships.co.uk/. 

Overseas students are strongly encouraged to contact your own Ministry of Education or Education Department, who will have details of most funding schemes and who will be able to advise you of your own government's conditions for studying abroad. You should also contact the nearest British Council office in your own country, who will have details of scholarship schemes and provide information and advice on educational programmes and living in the UK. If there is no British Council office, then contact the nearest British Embassy, High Commission or Consulate.  For further information on studying in the UK as an overseas student please contact the UCL International Office.

If you would like to undertake doctoral research at the Urban Laboratory, please explore ESRC funding opportunities here and visit the PhD study page on the main website.
