The University of Sussex has introduced a scholarship dedicated to students from India. The Sussex India Scholarship aims to offer financial aid to eligible Indian nationals pursuing master’s courses at Sussex starting in September 2024.
The scholarship fund, totalling £4,000, provides an opportunity for outstanding international Master’s and Bachelor’s applicants to also apply for the Chancellor's International Scholarship, valued at £5,000. The University has also launched the John Kinghorn Scholarship in Engineering (2024), offering £10,000 to each of four deserving recipients.
In further support of Indian students, the University is introducing £2,000 ‘Tuition Fee Awards’ for those enrolling in eligible master’s programs within the School of Engineering and Informatics or the University of Sussex Business School. This initiative aligns with our commitment to attracting and nurturing talented individuals from India, facilitating their academic and professional pursuits.
