EPCC online Dissertation Scholarship

The EPCC online Dissertation Scholarships aim to support the dissertation stage of the online MSc in HPC and HPC with Data Science programmes. We hope receiving the help to cover the course fees will reduce the financial burden and help the students to fully engage with their dissertation projects.

We are offering up to 2 full (4 half or a combination of full and half) course fees to cover the dissertation course – for the academic year 2025/2026 the full course fees are £6,370. These awards will be tenable for 1 academic year and will be automatically deducted from your tuition fees. 


These scholarships are offered to the current students on online MSc programmes in High Performance Computing and High-Performance Computing with Data Science. 

The scholarships will be awarded to the students starting their dissertation projects in September 2025.


The scholarships will be awarded on the basis of financial need and academic merit to the students progressing to the dissertation stage on the online MSc in HPC or MSc in HPC with Data Science. 

Only students ready to undertake their dissertation project are eligible to apply (i.e. they must be currently taking or have already completed the Project Preparation course and meeting the overall progression criteria). Applicants are expected to briefly describe their research problem and explain how receiving this contribution award would fit into their overall funding situation. 


The deadline for applying for this scholarship has now passed.
