Alumni bursary

  • Alumni Bursary

    Through generous alumni donations, the Alumni Office has been able to provide 13 bursaries over the past three years for those studying Taught Masters to cover tuition fees.

    Unfortunately, the Alumni Office is unable to provide any bursaries for the academic year 2012/2013 as there are insufficient funds to cover the cost of tuition fees. If you would like to support our students and the Alumni bursary, please click here.

  • Mark Chorlton

    MA Translation, 2010

    “The Alumni Bursary Scheme enabled me to study for an MA in Translation. I am visually impaired but haven’t let that get in the way of my ambitions. My goal is to work as a translator as I love the challenge of living and working abroad. The Bursary Scheme will help my dream become reality.”

  • Sophie Collings

    MA Human Geography, 2011

    “Without the bursary I would not have been able to continue my studies at Swansea. I had undertaken a study on Polish immigrants for my BA Geography dissertation, and was keen to carry out further research in this area. Winning the bursary has helped ease a huge financial burden and I am very grateful.”
