Masters in Conservation Leadership at University of Cambridge: Possible Scholarships


Masters in Conservation Leadership at University of Cambridge: Possible Scholarships

It is expected that a number of scholarships will be available for outstanding international applicants from countries rich in biodiversity and poor in financial resources to follow the MPhil in Conservation Leadership at the University of Cambridge during the academic year 2011/2012.  We expect to confirm the availability of these scholarships in May 2011.

The number and size of the scholarships will vary from full scholarships, to partial scholarships that cover specific aspects of the funding package required by students. Offers of scholarships will be made based on: academic quality; the motivation and potential of candidates to become conservation leaders; the funds applicants already have available for the course.

Interested and well-qualified applicants with 3-5 years of relevant experience who have not yet applied for a place on the Masters course need to do so through the Cambridge University Board of Graduate Studies by 29 April 2011 (for further details of the application procedure and links to the Board of Graduate Studies, see http://www.geog.cam.ac.uk/graduate/mphil/conservation/applications.html)

If you wish to be considered for full or partial scholarship support, please e-mail or attach a letter of not more than 500 words to the Programme Administrator (admin.conservationleadership@geog.cam.ac.uk) by 29 April 2011. In making their case for scholarship support, candidates should outline the funds that they have available, and any funds that they still require to ensure they can take up their place on the course.
