Country
Candidates from least developed nations and fragile Commonwealth States are eligible for full-time doctoral study at a UK university with the help of a Commonwealth PhD Scholarship.
Scholarship value
Commonwealth PhD scholarships are for high-quality graduates who have the potential to undertake world-class research of a developmental nature and to become influential leaders, teachers, or researchers in their home countries. The scholarships are fully financed, which means they will pay for your tuition, travel expenses to and from the UK, and a stipend to help you live while you are there.
