Postgraduate Research Funding & Scholarship opportunities

The Centre for Doctoral Studies helps secure funding for students interested in postgraduate research by providing advice on and administering a range of funding opportunities, scholarships, and studentships. Please note we are not able to advise on funding for Master's programmes, please see the Postgraduate Taught Fees & Funding webpages for advice for these programmes. For a comprehensive look at all the funding opportunities available to postgraduate research students, current and prospective students can search and view all available funding at King's College London on our funding opportunities database via the link below:
