DEADLINE: 26 NOVEMBER 2021
The Natural Language Processing Group at the University of Edinburgh currently has a number of fully funded studentships for studies beginning in September 2022.
WHAT IS A STUDENTSHIP?
THE UK RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (UKRI) provides UK universities with grants – awarded through a competitive process – to cover the fees and living costs of postgraduate students. Each place a university offers as a result of this funding is called a studentship.
