The Aziz Foundation has awarded its first 22 scholarships this year, for highly resilient and capable British Muslims pursuing their Masters degrees. The Foundation is generating opportunities for Muslims who wish to develop themselves professionally, building skills and expertise in order to progress in their industry.
The Aziz Foundation Scholarship is supporting British Muslim students pursuing postgraduate studies at 49 Partner Universities across the United Kingdom. This year, we are very pleased to be offering more choice in relation to eligible institutions than ever before.
The scholarship enables those from lower socio-economic backgrounds, experiencing financial barriers to academic progression, to enhance their prospects in contributing to community, industry, and wider society.
The Foundation focuses on seven priority areas:
- Law
- Policy
- Media & Journalism
- Sports
- Technology
- Sustainability
- Arts & Culture
Prospective applicants must submit an application by noon June 14th to be considered for the final round of applications.
