Oxford Mathematics is delighted to be a partner in the Martingale Postgraduate Foundation's programme of scholarships for students wishing to pursue postgraduate studies in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) subjects.

Martingale is a  postgraduate foundation that offers full funding and multi-year support for outstanding UK students to complete STEM PhDs and MSc courses at leading UK research universities. Mathematics at Oxford is a core component of Martingale.

Martingale Scholars will receive funding for the full cost of a PhD or MSc course. The scholarship will also include a full cost of living allowance, as well as an additional budget for research activities. The foundation will prioritise students for whom family income has been or would be a barrier to postgraduate education.

In addition to having their tuition fees fully funded by Martingale, Scholars will also receive access to outstanding career development opportunities. This includes attending leadership events and residentials, internships and industry placements, as well as opportunities to contribute to public engagement projects. Scholars will join a community of researchers and a network of leading universities and businesses across the UK.

Find out more about the scholarships, how to apply and the work and aspirations of the Martingale Foundation whose generosity enables these scholarships to be awarded.

Below is a video of our first cohort of Martingale Scholars talking about their experience.
