About this opportunity
The University of Sussex is delighted to offer this scholarship of £5,000 tuition fee reduction to a woman applicant starting a course in a STEM subject in September 2026. The donor, Jenny Kingsland, would like to support a woman studying a STEM subject, who sees a future career in science or research. Preference will be given to those studying the Sciences. Jenny Kingsland studied Biology at Sussex, graduating in 1970 with a BSc in Biology. She went on to have a career at Sheffield University, where she worked on carbon dating with organisations including English Heritage. She feels studying at Sussex created so many opportunities for her that she would like to provide similar opportunities for women in the sciences today. To apply for this scholarship, applicants need to have been assessed as 'Home' for fees and accept an offer on an eligible course in Life Sciences, Mathematics, or Physics and Astronomy.
