Dear Colleagues

 

The University of Exeter (UK) has a number of scholarships available for MSc study that I thought I would pass along.

Many of these would support students doing environmental degrees such as those on these lists. Please disseminate further to other lists/individuals.

 

A.      MSc Biodiversity and Conservation – Scholarships (Africa, Asia, Latin America)
