Applications are invited for studentships at a prominent British university or business school leading to a Master’s degree in some aspect of finance or economics. A successful candidate, who must have been accepted for such a course, may have some or all of his/her fees paid and may also receive a contribution towards living expenses.

The Marjorie Deane Financial Journalism Foundation aims to promote the understanding of financial markets and institutions, and in particular to foster excellence in financial journalism. Preference will therefore be given to applicants who can write well and who will produce a piece of research (probably based on their dissertation) that is suitable for publication. We aim to give preference to people who wish to pursue a career in financial journalism. For details about our studentship alumni, click here.

Candidates should send a CV, a proposed research topic and proof of entry to a Master’s degree programme to studentship@marjoriedeane.com.

Studentships are open to all, regardless of age, sex. etc.

The deadline for applications is Friday, May 17th 2013
