The document provides information about funding postgraduate study, including: - There is no mandatory funding for postgraduate study except for PGCE students. Fees are higher than undergraduate fees and most students need to find funding from other sources. - Potential sources of funding include research councils, charities and foundations, universities through studentships and scholarships, part-time work, loans, and support from employers. Securing funding requires determination and combining funding from multiple sources. - While funding postgraduate study presents challenges, many students successfully complete degrees through self-funding and portfolio approaches to financing their education. Networking, diligent research, and strong planning are important for finding viable options.
