The IMPACT Scholarship
Preventing and redressing the impact of inequalities is a core philosophy of the UCL Master of Public Health (MPH). To reflect this, we are offering two scholarships annually which will support applicants who have demonstrated financial need, who have lived experience of inequality, and who show great promise for population health impact. The IMPACT scholarships will cover the successful recipients’ full fees to study on the MPH programme. People wishing to study full time, or part- time, or modular flexible are welcome to apply and the scholarship will be applied to their fees pro rata.
