UK University of Oxford EIT Graduate Scholarships

The Ellison Institute of Technology (EIT) states that its Education & Scholarships programmes fully fund undergraduate or graduate studies at the University of Oxford and are intended to empower exceptional individuals to become global technology innovators and leaders of the future. The Graduate Ellison Scholars programme specifically provides fully funded doctoral (DPhil/PhD) study at the University of Oxford where graduate students directly contribute to progressing an EIT project.

EIT says the programme is for doctoral applicants who contribute to projects tackling global challenges through technology development. EIT highlights interest in applicants with skills aligned to fields such as computer science, artificial intelligence, economics, mathematics, robotics, plant sciences, machine learning, chemistry, biology, engineering, medicine, or microbiology. Applicants must demonstrate skills aligned with their chosen areas.

EIT describes selection as highly competitive and based on how applicants meet the University of Oxford’s entry requirements and EIT’s selection criteria. EIT requires applicants to demonstrate alignment with their chosen areas through meaningful contributions to the project’s development and impact, genuine interest in the chosen EIT project, and a research proposal matched to the project’s objectives. EIT also evaluates excellence, innovation, collaboration, tenacity, and integrity, with example evidence items included in the selection criteria.
