  Population Investigation Committee (PIC) scholarships: in recent years,
the PIC has offered one year scholarships for students undertaking our
MSc in Demography. The scheme will be running again this year, and up to
3 strong candidates will be put forward for consideration. We are
usually successful in obtaining these scholarships for at least one
student per year, worth £15,000.
