Students presenting posters of international placements at Turing Scheme reception

The Turing Scheme is the UK government's global programme to study and work abroad.

A logo that reads 'Turing Scheme: Funded by the UK's global programme to study and work abroad'.The Turing Scheme provides funding for international opportunities in education and training across the world.

This scheme is generously funded by the Department for Education and supports students to take up opportunities to gain international experience that will be both personally and academically beneficial.

 

The Turing Fund also recognises that students from under-represented backgrounds are less likely to spend a period of their degree overseas.

Widening access to these opportunities is a key priority of the scheme and enhanced funding is offered to students from lower income backgrounds or those who meet the relevant eligibility criteria.

You can find out more about widening access and eligibility for enhanced funding on the webpage for the relevant academic year. 

Please check the webpage for the relevant academic year, linked at the bottom of this page, for updates about possible future funding and confirmed activities. 

The activities which have been supported by funding from the Turing Scheme in previous years are given below. Please note, it is not guaranteed that funding will be available to support these activities in future years.
