For students on a one-year full-time course the value of the Scholarship is 20% of the tuition-fee level. For part-time or other modes of study the value is pro-rata to the above level, up to a maximum of 20% of a one-year fee.

The Scheme, applicable to many Postgraduate taught courses across the University, is open to all Heriot-Watt Alumni who have previously been registered for one year or more on a Heriot-Watt degree course. Alumni applicants should contact the relevant School or Postgraduate Institute to confirm if the proposed course of study is eligible for Scholarship, or for further information.

Exclusions are:

  • EBS courses
  • IPE courses (though they may offer a Scholarship for students studying in Orkney)
  • MSc Actuarial Science
  • Students studying on a course offered jointly with another university (Erasmus Mundus courses and several courses joint with Scottish Universities)
  • Students studying with a learning partner
  • Students studying in Dubai
  • Research degrees (eg PhD, MPhil)

The Scheme is available to students entering in 2009/2010 and thereafter. The Scheme is open to students who pay their own fees (we don't give discounts to companies that pay fees).
