Coase Scholarship

A generous endowment from the Nobel Prize-winning economist Professor Ronald Coase has enabled us to offer 14 new scholarships to study a range of Economics courses at The University of Buckingham.

Coase was inspired by his undergraduate economics education and went on to make a major change to the way we look at the world. His radical analysis of markets and firms established whole new areas of economic enquiry which you can learn more about on the Nobel Prize website.

A long-term friend of the University, his legacy now paves the way for future generations of Economics students from all backgrounds to change the future, starting that journey with us.

“I applied for the Coase Scholarship, which is a scholarship open to anyone studying economics within their degree. I found out about the scholarship when I attended the open day. I am very grateful to have received this scholarship because it has enabled me to focus on my degree, without having to worry about the financial side of being at university.”
