Turing Scheme funding can be accessed by students who are taking part in shorter term (minimum 28 days) activities including summer schools, international internships, volunteering abroad and research abroad programmes. These programmes can take place anywhere in the world.
Please note, we have limited funding and students will need to apply for the funding and are advised to read the eligibility criteria below before submitting their application. Applications are now open, and you can read more about how to apply below.
Turing Scheme funding is considered a general contribution to cost of living and travel costs, therefore students should budget accordingly based on their destination and duration of their programme. We hope that this funding can help to provide life changing opportunities to students and additional support is available for students from a widening participation background.
There are no maximum number of placements a single student can undertake. Therefore, you can apply for funding for a summer abroad programme as well as being eligible for study abroad year funding or future summer programme funding. In this case, the durations of the placements must not overlap (as this would result in dual funding). If you have any queries on this, please email [email protected]
