Thanks to the generosity of our alumni and supporters, we are able to make awards from a number of smaller funds.
There is no separate application process for these funds. Instead students should apply for one or more Awards for Travel, Projects, Internships and Personal Development. If you have any queries, please email the Scholarships and Funding Officer.
