Funding Opportunities
There are many different sources of funding available to support UK/EU and international students at the
Department of Archaeology but full scholarships for MPhil students are highly competitive. The Department of
Archaeology enters exceptionally strong MPhil candidates for Gates Cambridge, CHESS and AHRC scholarships and scholarship schemes administered by the Cambridge Trust.
The Department of Archaeology also administers several funds which aim to support Archaeological fieldwork,
Egyptology and Assyriology at MPhil level and will endeavour to support students in obtaining funding from
University and external sources.
For further information about funding opportunities at the Department of Archaeology consult the Funding for
