Annual Bursaries

KCLEA invites applications for their Undergraduate Engineering Student Bursaries.

Two KCLEA bursaries each to the value of £1000 are normally awarded each year to students
studying for an Engineering degree (BEng or MEng)
at KCL in the 2^nd year of a three year degree or 3^rd year of a four year degree.
The student cannot receive the bursary more than once during their time at KCL.

Students must formally apply to be considered for a bursary using not more than 500 words
and the award will be based on the following criteria, with the weighting for each shown below.

• Presentation and clarity - 10%
• Academic progress, in a measure that can be validated with staff - 25%
• Contribution to college life, society, engineering and/or the advancement

of STEM in society - 25%

• How do you believe engineers can make a difference to society? - 25%
• How would the bursary help your studies? - 15%

The awards will be decided by a panel of KCLEA committee members and academic staff.

All applications should be submitted via email

with the clear subject heading of "Application to the KCLEA Bursaries Competition"

to Dr Tabbi Wilberforce Awotwe tabbi.wilberforce@kcl.ac.uk  

by 28th October 2024.

In order that judging can be anonymous,
please put your name and email contact on a separate sheet at the front of your application.

A register of applications will be kept and applications numbered prior to being sent to the judges.

These bursaries are as a result of a donation from the KCLEA and a fund raising exercise 

among KCLEA members and other KCL Engineering graduates.

KCLEA reserves the right either to share bursaries if there is a tie or NOT to award any bursary
in the unlikely event of none being of a sufficient standard.

The bursaries will be announced by the President of KCLEA by email to the awardees in late November
and confirmed at the AGM on 5th December 2024, with payment to be made by year end.
