The University of Edinburgh will offer three scholarships to
students from Tanzania for postgraduate Master's study in any subject offered
by the University for the 2012-2013 academic session.
The Julius Nyerere Master's Scholarships will cover the full
overseas tuition fee, living costs of £10,000, and a return flight from
Tanzania to the UK.
The scholarships will be tenable for one academic year.
Eligibility
The scholarships will be awarded to Tanzanian citizens who
are normally resident in Tanzania, and who are 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 three Scholarships are awarded broadly on the basis of
academic merit, with candidates requiring a Bachelors degree equivalent to a UK
First Class Honours ('First') or Upper Division/Upper Second Class Honours
('2:1') degree.
The closing date for applications for these scholarships is
2 April 2012.
