MSc Fellowships in Health Economics - OHE

About the project

The OHE fellowship is available to study a postgraduate degree in MSc Health Economics and Policy or MSc Economic Evaluation in Healthcare.

The Office of Health Economics (OHE) wants to increase capacity of highly skilled economists specialised in health economics research by funding one student per year to do the MSc in Health Economics and Policy or a MSc in Economic Evaluation in Healthcare , part time, at the Department of Economics at City St George's, University of London.

OHE will pay the corresponding part time fees and a stipend to the student of £1,600 per month for two years.

The deadline for application for 2025/26 entry is 31 May 2025.

• Selection will be based on merit. To be able to be considered, the applicant needs to have been accepted on to an MSc programme and send a statement of purpose explaining why they want to apply to mjofre-bonet@ohe.org .
• All OHE fellows will attend all OHE masterclasses and OHE lunchtime seminars, OHE annual lectures and all other OHE research activities.
• Students that are awarded the OHE fellowship will have as a co supervisor of their MSc dissertations one of OHE staff with a City St George's affiliation.

Right to work requirement

Applicants must hold full and unrestricted permission to work in the UK at the point of application, and this permission must remain valid for the full duration of the studentship and any subsequent post-graduation employment period.

Please note that visa sponsorship is not available for the post-graduation role. Therefore, only applicants who already hold and can maintain the necessary permission to work in the UK for the entire period should apply.

Conditions

This Fellowship will be awarded to one successful part-time applicant, covering Home fees only.

From September 2025, international fee payer students offered the Fellowship will receive a fee waiver from the School of Policy & Global Affairs for the difference between international and Home fees, reducing their fee liability to the Home level.
