McDonald Fellowships (2025) (Funded Completely)
McDonald Fellowship applications are now being accepted. We shall go into great depth about this scholarship program, including its advantages and the detailed application procedure, in this post.
International students can apply for fully financed scholarships through the McDonald Fellowships 2025–2026. Both master’s and doctoral degrees are eligible for these awards. The fellowship includes a two-year grant of around £30,000 GBP annually to cover living and travel expenses, as well as an extra £2,000 GBP annually to the host university.
Early-career multiple sclerosis researchers from low- and middle-income nations can work in a research facility abroad thanks to the McDonald Fellowship. We anticipate that after receiving the award, candidates will be able to continue their MS research and/or patient treatment in low- and middle-income nations by utilizing the newly created networks and knowledge.
