Hatfield Lioness Scholarship 2025 in UK | Fully Funded

The Hatfield Lioness Scholarship aims to provide an opportunity for a female student from a developing nation with limited access to tertiary education to pursue postgraduate studies at Durham University. The award was established in 2018 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of women students at Hatfield College, Durham University, and is supported by alumni, College friends, and other sources that support the initiative's goals.

Hatfield College aims to grant the Lioness Scholarship to someone who demonstrates the academic and personal attributes necessary to thrive in and gain from a postgraduate course, while also serving as a positive representative for their home country in Durham, utilizing the enhanced knowledge and skills acquired from the master's program and experience in Durham for the benefit of their community upon returning home.
