Bursaries

MA Publishing

There are three annual bursaries available to applicants of our MA Publishing course:

Stationers' Foundation bursary

The Stationers' Foundation bursary offers our MA Publishing applicants a bursary of £6,000 and, in addition, mentoring from an appropriate Stationer taking into account the recipients specific interests (conditions apply). The Stationers' Foundation is the charitable arm of the Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers which supports a wide range of educational initiatives from primary through to postgraduate education. Only six Universities were selected for the bursary scheme.

Applicants for the Stationers' Foundation bursary must normally be under 25 on 1 September 2013, resident in the UK, and classified as paying UK tuition fees. If you are between 25 and 30 and wish to apply, please discuss your application with the Course Leader, Leah Tether.

Cambridge University Press bursary

The Cambridge University Press bursary offers a reduction on tuition fees of £1200 for the academic year 2012/13.

It is available to holders of unconditional or conditional offers for the full-time MA Publishing at Anglia Ruskin University who accept their offer by 26 July 2013.

Anglia Ruskin University has received an AHRC Block Grant Partnership Capacity Building award for 2011-13. Applications for studentships are invited for our MA Publishing course.

Successful applicants will receive a bursary at the AHRC rate, a fee waiver and access to dedicated specialist training spaces.
