A number of
Deutsche Post DHL Scholarships are available for postgraduate Master's study in
eligible programmes supported by the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Innovation for
the 2014-2015 academic session.
The aim of
the scholarships is to attract the best and most motivated people to Edinburgh
to play a part in building low carbon economies around the world.
Each scholarship will have a value of up to £8,000
which will be tenable for one academic year, with the exception of the award
linked to the MSc Carbon Finance which will be worth £16,000.
Eligibility
The scholarships are open to UK, EU and overseas
students who are accepted for admission on a full-time basis for an eligible
