The Fusion CDT offers funded 4-year PhD studentships, however, the availability of fully funded positions is limited.
If you can arrange your own funding (for example, by applying for a scholarship), this can greatly improve your opportunities within the Fusion CDT.
In order to be eligible for most scholarships you will need to have an offer for a place on a research degree. If you are planning to apply for a scholarship please make this clear on your Fusion CDT application and get in touch with us by email as early as you can, to let us know the deadline for submitting your scholarship application.
Some advice on finding funding for a postgraduate research degree can be found on our university partner websites:

For overseas students. a good starting point when researching funding opportunities is to contact your local British Council office. They can provide up-to-date advice on what is available for your country and you can search for scholarships online.
