A direct link to our programme at UniversityAdmissions.se can be found here. Please be sure that when you apply online that you carefully rank the programmes to which you apply. If you are accepted by your top ranked programme, you will not have the option to attend any lower ranked options, even if you would have been accepted by these lower ranked programmes.

]]>Tuition to study in Sweden has until recently been free – even for foreigners – and thus it is not common for universities to offer scholarships directly . The cost of living in Sweden is high in comparison to many countries around the world, but there are many sources of funding that you can investigate to support you during your studies. However, this requires you plan ahead and be persistent in your investigations. In many cases, you can apply for scholarships without yet being officially accepted – ask the organisation you are applying to if this is possible.
Yes, there will be a number of scholarships available from BTH covering the tuition fee or part of the tuition fee. Find out more at this link.
A number of scholarships for studies in Sweden are administered by the Swedish Institute, please see http://www.studyinsweden.se/Scholarships/ for more information regarding these. Among these there is a scholarship programme financed by the Swedish Government for students from 12 developing countries: Bangladesh, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia, but there are other programmes too. (More information on this is below.)
You should also consider bilateral agreements between Sweden and your home country. We recommend you also seek funds from current or prospective employers, as a Master’s degree in Strategic Leadership towards Sustainability is of high value to any employer. You can read more about this option below. You should also be aware that sometimes scholarships must be applied for well in advance of your application to study (up to one year in advance).
All information on this page is given to the best of our knowledge . However, sometimes changes occur so you are advised to see the respective scholarship’s website for the full, complete and most up-to -date information.
On www.studyinsweden.se you will find information on the Swedish Institute scholarships, bilateral scholarships and other scholarship programmes.
(Please note: In the past, for these scholarships, you apply when you fill in the application form for admission to your programmes of choice. You will then be considered by the programme management appropriate for the scholarship(s). See more information at the Swedish Institute’s hompage. There are very few SI Scholarships available and there is a lot of competition.)
(Please note: For these scholarships, you apply independently. BTH is not responsible for the contents or information on linked pages provided).
In past years a number of students have been successful in obtaining funds from their employer or other organizations in their home countries. Allowing an employee to study in Sweden and return with new sustainability expertise can be very valuable for an organization, so you shouldn’t be afraid of inquiring with your current employer.
An alternative approach is to find an organization that could benefit from sustainability advice or your assistance on a limited-term basis in exchange for funds to study in Sweden. For example, sometimes course work of the MSPI programme provides the possibility of working directly with an external organization on a Strategic Planning for Sustainability project. Industry Collaboration during thesis projects is also an opportunity where you can combine your studies with direct tangible benefits that an organization may be willing to pay you for.
Please note: These arrangements are your personal responsibility and you should be careful not to promise more than you can deliver. Please read our Programme Content to familiarize yourself with the Academic Requirements of the programme.
You may be eligible to apply for a student loan if such schemes exist within your country. Unfortunately, we have limited information about such schemes and you should investigates the options that exist in your country. We endeavour to provide Information on schemes which we know about.
For Canadian Students, you should check with your provincial student loan body to see if BTH is registered, as past students initiated this process in certains provinces. If you intend to register BTH in your Province, be aware that this process takes considerable time. Note: As far as we know, BTH is approved within BC, Alberta, Ontario and New Brunswick. BTH’s institutional code when applying is QUXG.
For UK Students, we are registered with The Yound People ‘s Learning Agency. Professional and Career Development Loans are loans that can be used to help pay for work related learning. You can borrow between £300 and £10,000 to help support the cost of up to two years of learning (or three years if it includes one year’ s relevant unpaid practical work). The Young People’s Learning Agency will pay the interest on the loan while you are learning and for one month afterwards. The loan can be used to pay course fees or other costs such as travel and living expenses. You can also use the loan to supplement other forms of support such as grants or bursaries. Because the Professional and Career Development Loan is a commercial loan product, they should be considered as an option only once all other student funding options have been investigated. For further information on financial assistance to support your learning, please visit www.direct.gov.uk/adultlearning or contact Careers Advice on 0800 100 900. Our learning provider registration number is 20179.
For American (U.S.) students: As of March 2011, BTH is no longer pursuing the application for accreditation with the US government, due to legal reasons. Sorry for this, but we understand that it applies to all public Swedish institutions.
For Mexican students, The Mexican National Bank-Fund for Human Resources Development (Banco de México- FIDERH) provides special loans for students that want to do a postgraduate programme in another country. You can borrow up to 200,000 pesos per year to study abroad. The loan can be used to pay course fees or other costs such as travel and living expenses. FIDERH opens several calls each year. For further information on financial assistance to support your learning, please visit http://www.fiderh.org.mx/.
For Colombian students, ICETEC (Instituto Colombiano de Crédito Educativo y Estudios Técnicos en el Exterior) provides loans for students that want to do a postgraduate programme in another country. You can borrow up to US$16,000 to study abroad. Please visit http://www.icetex.gov.co.
