For the academic year 2022/23, the University of Edinburgh is pleased to announce the availability of the Polish School of Medicine Memorial Fund Scholarships for Both Domestic and International Students
The Polish School of Medicine Memorial Scholarships Fund was set up in 1986 by former members of staff, graduates, alumni and friends of the School to commemorate the endeavors of the School at The University of Edinburgh from 1941Â to 1949 and to foster academic links between The University of Edinburgh and Poland.Â
The scholarship enables medical scientists at the outset of their careers to undertake a period of further study or research at the University’s Medical School and return to Poland.
Each year, a certain number of scholarships will be available. These are usually in the form of a monthly subsistence payment for up to a year. Scholars enrolled in an Edinburgh-based degree program may be eligible for financial aid with course fees.
