Engineering: Dean’s International Excellence Awards for Postgraduate Taught Study

The Faculty of Engineering are delighted to be offering a limited number of Dean’s International Excellence Awards worth £7,000 and £10,000 to exceptional applicants joining a postgraduate taught programme in September 2025. All self-funded, international (non-EU), fee-paying postgraduate taught applicants joining one of our on campus programmes will be considered.

All eligible international offer holders will automatically be considered and contacted before 31 July 2025 if successful. A scholarship application is not required.

If successful, the scholarship details will be added to your student record once payment of deposit has been received, and the funds will be automatically deducted from your overall tuition fees. 

Eligibility

There are a limited number of Excellence Awards available of £7,000 – £10,000.  Students are required to demonstrate academic excellence (usually a UK first class undergraduate degree or international equivalent), and the potential both to make a significant contribution to the Strathclyde community during their studies and in their chosen profession upon graduation. The deadline to be considered for the Dean’s International Excellence Award is 31 July 2025. There is no application process for this award and chosen offer holders will be contacted in advance of the deadline.

Important things to note:

• The scholarships are available for eligible self-funded, international (non-EU) fee-paying applicants enrolling on a full-time course within the University of Strathclyde’s campus in Glasgow starting September 2025 only.

• The scholarships will be awarded automatically and no application is necessary. Please note that the scholarship details will be added to your student record once payment of deposit has been received, and the funds will be automatically deducted from your overall fees. 

• Those who receive full sponsorship from a government office or embassy are not eligible for these scholarships.

• In order to be considered for a scholarship an applicant must hold an offer to study on a full-time postgraduate taught course in September 2025.

• Students are only eligible for one scholarship per academic year from the University of Strathclyde.
