Applications for the 2025 University of Glasgow Graduate Scholarship are currently being accepted by the Adam Smith Business School at the University of Glasgow for both domestic and foreign students in the United Kingdom.
Starting with a two-year MRes course, the school provides a distinguished combined MRes/PhD training program in Economics. Admission to the three- to four-year PhD stage will be given preference to those who successfully finish the MRes with strong academic standing.
Beginning in the second year of the program, there is a minimal teaching requirement included in the money, which is renewed annually. Up to six studentships will be offered by the University of Glasgow, which would pay tuition and provide a stipend for a maximum of five years.This assistance guarantees that students obtain thorough MRes (pre-PhD) instruction, which is followed by independent, supervised research in the economics field of their choice, culminating in the completion of a PhD.
