Funding Opportunities

The Institute offers funding from the Wakefield Scholarship Fund (for applicants born or educated in Canada, Australia or New Zealand) and the Manuel López-Rey Studentship Fund (open to all applicants). However, the Manuel López-Rey Fund Managers may give preference to candidates who are citizens of countries in which, in their opinion, there is a particular need for the development of the study of criminology.

In addition, the University offers a range of funding.
