Funding Opportunities

There are many different sources of funding available to support UK and international students in Biological Anthropology, but full scholarships for MPhil students are highly competitive. The Department of Archaeology enters exceptionally strong MPhil candidates for Gates US, Gates International, and scholarship schemes administered by the °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï Trust, as well as scholarships to students from Africa from the Mastercard Foundation, among others.

The Department of Archaeology also administers several funds which aim to support field and lab work at MPhil level, and endeavours to support students in obtaining funding from University, College and external sources.
