IGP hackathon

We are delighted to announce that the Commonwealth Shared Scholarship Scheme and the IGP BAME Scholarships are available to students who have an offer to study on the Global Prosperity MSc or Prosperity, Innovation and Entrepreneurship MSc and meet the eligibility requirements. 

Please visit our Funding your study at the Institute for Global Prosperity webpage for full details on the schemes and eligibility 

The aim of the Commonwealth Shared Scholarship Scheme (CSSS) is to assist students from developing Commonwealth countries who are of excellent academic calibre but for financial reasons would not otherwise be able to afford to study in the United Kingdom. The scheme allows them to benefit from postgraduate study at a university in the United Kingdom which will help them to contribute toward the development of their home countries.

The IGP BAME Scholarships aim to enable UK students from under-represented backgrounds to pursue their Masters studies at the Institute.
