Scholarships
At Heriot-Watt we believe that a university education is an investment in your future. If you have the talent, ability and drive to study with us, we want to make sure you make the most of the opportunity, regardless of your financial circumstances.
That is why we offer a generous package of scholarships and bursaries (that do not need to be paid back) to encourage and support well qualified, ambitious students to come and study at Heriot-Watt.
You can apply for a range of University scholarships as well as funding provided by UK and international government bodies, the European Commission, funding trusts, a number of research councils, industry and employers.
