About

The Manuel López-Rey Studentship in Criminology is awarded from the Manuel López-Rey Fund, given to the University by Mrs Grace López-Rey in memory of her husband, Professor Manuel López-Rey, a former Visiting Fellow of the Institute.

Studentships are normally awarded for one year only. The Manuel Lopez-Rey Studentship will go towards one year of University Composition Fees up to a maximum award of £30,000. If your University Composition Fees are less than £30,000, the value of your award will match the cost of your fees. If your University Composition Fees are being fully paid by an external body, you are not eligible to apply for this award. The Studentship may not be available in every academic year.
