Benefits for Scholars
Arkwright Engineering Scholarships can support you to become a future leader in engineering, computing or technical design. Here is a little insight into the sort of support and benefits you could receive...
Key benefits include:
Financial help
You receive £600 as part of the Scholarship - use this funding to support the purchase of components and materials to complete your personal technical projects or enhance your curriculum projects. Alternatively, use the money to purchase text books, reference books, or to fund your attendance on technical courses, summer schools or university open days. Your school receives £400 if you secure a Scholarship which it must spend on equipment, materials or teacher training to enhance the delivery of STEM subjects.
Mentoring
Wherever possible we or your Sponsor will pair you with a Mentor - a Professional Engineer who can provide advice and guidance about your future study and career development, and even technical advice to help with your projects.
Exclusive Events
Scholars have access to a wide variety of exclusive events run by our partner companies, universities and trade associations, including Connect Days and Summer Schools. These events give our Scholars a real insight into different sectors of industry and academia.
