#DMUglobal recognises that travelling overseas can be expensive for students. All fee-paying degree students who formally accept their place onto an overseas #DMUglobal opportunity will receive a #DMUglobal bursary. For the 2019 – 2020 academic year students can receive:
Europe
Bursary
Outside of Europe
Bursary
All DMU students that meet the eligibility criteria for an opportunity are able to receive the following #DMUglobal bursaries in a single academic year (1st September 2018 to 31st August 2019):
- One bursary for an Academic-led trip
- One bursary for an Extra-curricular opportunity. These include: student-led trips; volunteering; employability trips; internships; summer schools.
Part-time and Distance Learning students are eligible to receive only one bursary in a single academic year.
How will I receive my #DMUglobal bursary?
If you are responsible for booking travel, the bursary payment will be paid directly into your bank account. Once you have accepted your place, we aim to pay the bursary to your account at least 2 months before your trip departs.
If travel bookings are being made by your Faculty, the bursary will be deducted from the total cost of the booking. You will then be asked to make a payment for the remainder of the cost to your faculty through the DMU online store.
Additional support
As well as the #DMUglobal bursary, we also offer additional financial support that you could be eligible to receive. Click the links below to find out more.
If I arrange an international opportunity independently, will I still receive funding and support?
#DMUglobal funding and support is available sole for opportunities which are sourced and organised through #DMUglobal. You will not be able to receive funding or support for an international opportunity that you have arranged independently unless this is through the external providers listed on the #DMUglobal website.
