fully funded MSc places
Programme Overview:
The SAIC MSc Scholarship Programme aimed to increase accessibility to Master of Science (MSc) degrees in aquaculture-related fields via fully funded scholarships for eligible students enrolled at specific Scottish universities. Browse the list below.
- Research Project Focus: Scholarship recipients were required to focus their MSc research project on a topic relevant to challenges and opportunities faced by the Scottish aquaculture industry. This ensured the programme directly addressed industry needs.
