MSc Tropical Forestry – Commonwealth Scholarship Commission Distance Learning Scholarships

Course(s) Offered: Forestry
Course Level: Postgraduate (masters)
Provider: Commonwealth Scholarship Commission
Country to Study in: Online (any country)

Scholarship Description
Bangor University is pleased to announce a number of fully-funded scholarships (to cover tuition fees) are available for student applicants from selected developing commonwealth countries to study for the MSc Tropical Forestry by distance learning.

This postgraduate programme is primarily intended for students who already have an interest in forestry and who wish to learn more about the environmental and societal benefits that tropical forests can provide. Suitable applicants include individuals working in forestry/forest-related industries/ natural resource management, particularly in the fields of planning, regulation, policy, monitoring, conservation and environmental protection.  The course is also suited to individuals working in forestry education who wish to further their knowledge and expertise in order to improve their teaching.

Applicants should ensure they are eligible for entry to the course (see 'Eligibility' below) and that distance learning is suitable for them before applying for a CSC scholarship.

Eligibility
In order to be considered for a CSC scholarship, applicants are expected to have at least an upper second class degree in a relevant subject (e.g. forestry, conservation, land management, natural sciences, economics). Relevant work experience is also valued. Applicants with a lower second class degree with relevant and sufficient work experience may also be considered.

In order to study on this programme, students must have regular access to a computer with internet access, as the University cannot provide such facilities to distance learning students. Scholars who do not have the opportunity to frequently access a reliable computer with reliable internet access will find that their distance learning experience will be hugely compromised. A small study grant (GBP £10 a month) is provided to successful scholars to assist them with the costs of computing and internet access.

Applicants should ensure they are eligible for entry to the course and that distance learning is suitable for them before applying for a CSC scholarship.

Eligible groups

Bangladesh, Botswana, Cameroon, Ghana, Guyana, India, Jamaica, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Rwanda, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia
