Awards
The School of Chemistry are offering three bursaries, for the sum of £2,000 each per year (e.g. £8,000 for a four-year BSc or £10,000 for five-year MChem course). This annual bursary will be available for duration of the programme of study, subject to satisfactory academic progression.
Eligibility
The bursaries will be awarded to applicants from the UK who are accepted for full-time admission to an undergraduate degree programme offered by the School of Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh.
The bursaries are not available to students already on programme. They are also not available to students studying Chemistry as part of a degree programme hosted by another School within the University.
Eligible students must have applied through the University and Colleges Admission Service (UCAS) and have been offered a place at the University of Edinburgh.
The bursaries are aimed at students who are:
- attending schools where relatively few students go on to higher education
- living in low participation neighbourhoods, e.g. the lowest quintile in the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD20)
- young people with care experience
- young carers
- from low socio economic groups
- involved in LEAPS or other Widening Participation programmes e.g. Focus West, Sutton Trust, SWAP Access Programme.
Eligible students will have evidenced, or be predicted to achieve, a strong academic performance before starting university. When offering bursaries, we will take the above factors plus academic merit into consideration.
