The Deusto Business School Master’s Scholarships aim to promote equal opportunities for students enrolled in master’s programmes by providing financial support through a scholarship system. This support helps students with limited financial resources who have demonstrated satisfactory academic performance to access and/or continue their studies. The scholarships also facilitate the participation of international students in Deusto Business School Master’s programmes.
These scholarships are compatible with and complementary to the grants and scholarships generally offered by public bodies; consequently, applicants may also apply for those.
