The Aziz Foundation Scholarship at the University of Bradford is a partnership between the Aziz Foundation and the University of Bradford that offers up to 10 full-tuition scholarships for postgraduate taught (master's) study. The award covers 100 percent of tuition fees for an eligible one-year master's programme, so recipients pay nothing toward their course fees. Eligible programmes span subjects such as Cyber Security MSc, Artificial Intelligence MSc, Filmmaking MA, Peace, Conflict and Development MA, Sustainable Development MSc, and others including marketing, international relations and digital media; the full list is published on the university's website, and some courses can be studied on campus or online. The scholarship is aimed at British Muslim students resident in the UK or British Overseas Territories, such as Anguilla, Bermuda, Scotland and Wales. Applicants must first apply to and be accepted onto a postgraduate programme at the University of Bradford, then apply directly to the Aziz Foundation, which makes the final decision. There are 2 application cycles each year: a first cycle opening in mid-January and closing in early April, and a second cycle opening in April and closing in late June. Because the number of awards, eligible course list and exact 2027 dates change each cycle, confirm the current figures and deadlines on the official Aziz Foundation page before you apply.
