The University of Sheffield in the UK is now accepting applications for its MSc Environmental Change and International Development course, which begins in September 2025. This full-time course runs for one year and costs £27,670 (approximately Rs 32 lakh) for Indian students. To apply for this programme, candidates must have completed a three or four-year bachelor's degree from a recognised university, with a minimum score of 60 percent.
The University accepts degrees in various fields, including Arts and Humanities, Social Sciences, Medicine, and Public Health. In addition, applicants must have an IELTS score of 6.5, with at least 6.0 in each section, or an equivalent qualification accepted by the University.
The University of Sheffield is also offering the International Postgraduate Taught Scholarship 2025 for international students from certain regions, including India, who are enrolling in a taught master's programme starting in September 2025. This scholarship is worth £2,000 (around Rs 2.3 lakh) for students joining courses under the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and the Faculty of Social Science.
No separate application is needed for this scholarship; if applicants meet the eligibility and selection criteria, the scholarship will be automatically applied as a tuition fee discount. However, to receive this scholarship, applicants must have accepted their admission offer by 4 pm (UK time) on July 8, 2025.
This programme allows students to customise their course based on their personal interests. The University provides a blend of academic excellence, professional skills training, an optional field class, and a research-based dissertation. Students may choose to conduct their dissertation through placements, research collaborations, or independent research.
It is important to note that the costs of optional field classes and placements are not covered by the tuition fees. However, a limited amount of financial support is available to help with these expenses, which can be accessed through a competitive selection process.
Additionally, students will spend six to eight weeks in June or July working with a host organisation. During this period, they will carry out a research project assigned by the organisation and approved by the University. The project will have practical importance, and the research findings will form the basis of the student's dissertation. Some students may also work directly on the core activities of the host organisation during this time.
