Bartlett Masters scholarship scheme

The Bartlett, UCL’s Faculty of the Built Environment, is offering 10 scholarships (worth £10,000 each) for students registered on a Masters programme in the Bartlett to be used as partial fee remittance for study in 2020-21.

The deadline for receipt of all scholarship applications is 16.00 (UK time) on Friday 3 April 2020. All applicants will be informed of the outcome by email in late June 2020.

All Bartlett taught postgraduate students, including continuing students, can be considered for this scholarship, regardless of study mode or fee status.

Our goal

The Bartlett, through this award, hopes to encourage students from under-represented groups to embark on a postgraduate qualification at UCL.

Who can apply?

Successful applicants will need to meet two core criteria:

Applicants must hold an offer of study to commence study in September 2020 (or be continuing, if following a modular/flexible or part-time course of study)
Applicants must be able to pay the remainder of their tuition fees and all living expenses

Eligibility will be means-tested and will take into account total funds available to the applicant.

Please note scholarship applicants do not necessarily require an offer of admission by the deadline date, but will need to have submitted a complete application for study.

Bartlett travel awards and scholarships

The Bartlett Faculty Travel Awards and Scholarships are available to support Bartlett undergraduate students in undertaking independent travel to another country.

There are three scholarships available:

Herbert Henry Bartlett Travel Scholarship (for study and travel anywhere in the world)
Owings Travel Scholarship (for study and travel in the USA only)
Maggie Scruton Memorial Travel Scholarship (for study and travel in France only)

Applications are closed.

Our goal

These awards are intended to fund travel which, rather than being directly related to a student's formal programme of study or coursework, will provide the student with an opportunity to independently experience and study a place which is new to them, and which they would not otherwise have the chance to visit. The awards are not intended to subsidise course related field trips, conferences, design projects, dissertation/thesis research or to return to a student’s home country.

Who can apply?

All undergraduate students registered on full-time undergraduate programmes of study in the Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment are eligible to apply.

Students may apply for more than one of the above travel scholarships, but should only submit one application form.

Apply

Applicants should read the guidelines and use the application form below.

All applications should be submitted by email, electronically in MS Word format, to: George Burridge (George.burridge@ucl.ac.uk)

If you have any queries about the Bartlett Travel Awards please contact Aeli Roberts (a.roberts@ucl.ac.uk) or Annabel Brown (annabel.brown@ucl.ac.uk)
