About this scholarship
What you get
This entry focuses on the one-year research Master’s programme Modelling Biological Complexity at University College London (UCL). It is run by CoMPLEX, the centre at UCL where biology, medicine, mathematics and physics converge. The programme comprises introductory lectures, three marked interdisciplinary assignments, a 11-week summer research project and a series of tasks designed to develop transferable skills. In subsequent years, there were no longer any funded places, meaning that students had to cover the tuition fees themselves.
Eligibility
- Degree: You hold a university degree at upper second-class or first-class level, or an equivalent qualification from abroad.
- Field of study: You have a degree in mathematics, physics, computer science, engineering or the life sciences.
- Maths background: If you are aiming for a degree in the life sciences, you will need a solid grounding in mathematics, for example at A-level or above.
- Nationality: Any nationality can apply.
- Where you study: You’re studying at UCL in London.
How to apply
Applications must be submitted via UCL. The deadline for self-funded applicants is 4 July.
