The Craig Mathieson China Master’s Scholarship

12.1.08 |

The University of Edinburgh offers a number of International Master’s Scholarships for postgraduate study in any subject offered by the University.
The most outstanding candidate from China who applies for an International Master’s Scholarship will receive the Craig Mathieson China Master’s Scholarship which was set up in 2005 in memory of Craig Mathieson who served as Director of the International Office from 2001 until his death in 2005. Craig was widely admired and welcomed in a number of countries including China where the University attracts a large number of students each year.

The Craig Mathieson China Master’s Scholarship will have a value of £5,000 which will be deducted from the tuition fee. The scholarship will be tenable for one academic year.

Eligibility

The scholarship will be awarded to a Chinese citizen who is normally resident in China, and who is accepted for admission on a full-time basis for a postgraduate Master’s programme of study at the University of Edinburgh.

Applicants should already have been offered a place at the University of Edinburgh and should have firmly accepted that offer or be intending to do so.

Criteria

The scholarship will be awarded broadly on the basis of academic merit with candidates requiring a Bachelor Degree with a Cumulative Grade Point Average of at least 3.3 out of 4, or equivalent, from a recognised Chinese university.

In addition to the above academic qualifications, the selection panel will also take into account the financial circumstances of applicants to ensure that as far as possible a student’s financial situation does not impede a university education at the University of Edinburgh.

Application Procedure

Applicants can download an application form in Rich Text Format (RTF) or PDF (which requires Adobe Acrobat Reader), or request one to be sent to them from:

The Scholarships and Student Finance Office
The University of Edinburgh
Old College

Edinburgh

E-mail: scholarships@ed.ac.uk
Telephone: +44 131 651 4070

A completed scholarship application form, together with a copy of your degree transcript and two academic references, should be received by the Scholarships and Student Finance Office by the closing date of 1 April 2008 in order to be considered for the scholarship.

Selection Procedure

A Selection Committee will meet in mid May 2008 to select the scholarship holder. The winner of the scholarship will be announced in late May 2008.
