Environment, Food, Health and Technology Scholarships
Environment, Food, Health and Technology Scholarships: The University of Nottingham offers 8 Scholarships for new students registering on Taught Masters programmes at the University of Nottingham every September.

Under the scheme, the ACU pays the students’ tuition fees, thesis expenses, study travel grant, the cost of airfare to and from the United Kingdom and excess baggage allowance for accompanied books up to 10kg on return home.
The University of Nottingham provides a full maintenance award plus additional allowances.

Students should normally be under the age of 35 years and should be sufficiently fluent in written and oral English to be able to pursue their proposed studies immediately.
