King's College Additional Studentships

At King's, we are fortunate to have some additional funds available, to support a small number of applicants, based on a variety of criteria.

The exact amounts of any studentships can vary, from a few thousand pounds, to full funding.

Studentships are available for both PhD and Masters students. Most studentships are for full-time students, although part-time students can be considered in exceptional cases.

Did you know that the exhibition ‘Isherwood in Cambridge’, currently at the @parkerlibrary of @corpuscambridge, has been curated by King’s alumna Eliza Haughton-Shaw (KC 2016) and features illustrations by the also King’s alumna and former member of the @kings_art_rooms illustrator Anna Trench (KC 2007)? Anna was asked to illustrate Christopher Isherwood’s sinister and playful ‘Mortmere’ stories which Isherwood created with his friend Edward Upward while undergraduates at Corpus. ⏳ Open until 4 June (opening reception 22 May, 4pm, Parker Library) #ChristopherIsherwood
 
A very special ceremony today, where over half of the graduands were receiving their MBA degrees (so many 'green hoods' on display!) and the lining up took place in a very sunny Webb’s Court. See them all leave College via the King’s Lane Gate behind the Deputy Head Porter and the Praelector. Congratulations to all! Enjoy the rest of your big day and share some of your photos with communications@kings.cam.ac.uk or tag King’s in your posts. @cambridgeuniversity @cambridgejudge #cambridgegraduation

Unfortunately, our old hive perished over the winter. We have since found two new hives to cherish and so this is one of the first inspections of the season… with many more to come. We hope you all welcome the new bees with love ❤️. P.S. spot the queen bee in pictures 8 & 9!!!
 
All shades of pink and purple met in the Cambridge sky last night, and so many gathered on the Back Lawn to try to capture it on camera. 😍 Thank you for sharing the moment with us, keep tagging the College in your posts and fingers crossed the show will continue tonight! #northernlights #cambridgecollegelife 📷 by @_sjnl
