The department of Government is offering a bursary of £3,000 to assist one postgraduate student within the department of Government to assist with tuition fees or living costs.

We have been extremely fortunate to offer this award due to the kind donation from one of the department's early graduates, and its first Master's student to earn his PhD at Essex.

How to apply

You can apply for the award by completing an application form (.docx) and submitting it to govddm@essex.ac.uk The deadline to apply for this fund is 11.59pm BST 30 June 2026.

Full details

Please read the full terms and conditions before applying for or accepting a scholarship or bursary. They contain important information about eligibility, how you'll receive your funding and whether this award can be combined with others or not.
