The scholarship may be applied for in two ways. Firstly on an individual basis. Secondly, in partnership with a sponsoring organisation. In the latter case Cranfield will match the sponsor’s contribution up to £14,000, but the sponsor’s contribution has no limit.

Requirements : There is a parallel application process – application for entry onto the MBA programme and application for the scholarship.
