A&BK Scholarships in the Department of Chemical Engineering

The A&BK Scholarships in the Department of Chemical Engineering is a need-based and merit-based scholarship for undergraduate students from widening participation backgrounds. The scholarship provides a cash bursary of £20,000 per year to support students from low-income households (£42,000 or less) who have received an offer to study Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London. The award is designed to cover tuition fees and living costs, with the scholarship first applied to tuition fees and any remaining funds paid as a maintenance grant. The scholarship is available to students with Home fee status who qualify for Imperial's contextual admissions schemes, indicating they are from a widening participation background. This demonstrates Imperial's commitment to supporting talented students from underrepresented socioeconomic backgrounds in pursuing their education in Chemical Engineering. The award is renewable for up to 4 years, contingent upon maintaining satisfactory academic progress. Applicants must submit both a student finance application confirming their household income through their local funding authority (SFE, SFW, SAAS or SFNI) and a UCAS application with an offer of admission to the Department of Chemical Engineering. The scholarship recipients are selected based on academic merit and potential as demonstrated in their UCAS application. This scholarship program runs annually from academic year 2022-23 through 2026-27, providing critical financial support to enable access to higher education in chemical engineering for students who might otherwise face financial barriers.
