McCann FitzGerald Contract Law Bursary - Year 1

The McCann FitzGerald Contract Law Bursary is awarded annually to outstanding first-year law students at University College Cork who demonstrate excellence in Contract Law. Students achieving the top 10 results in Contract Law are invited to apply for this prestigious bursary. The selection process involves both academic merit and a competitive assessment process. Applicants must submit a 1000-word research essay on the topic set for the year. From those invited to apply, the top 5 students based on academic results are shortlisted and forwarded to McCann FitzGerald for interview and full assessment. The interview panel includes representatives from McCann FitzGerald, a leading Irish law firm, and the final selection is based on academic results, the research essay, and performance in the interview. This bursary provides financial support valued at €3,130 to successful candidates. Recipients must maintain attendance and program requirements throughout the year, and may be required to repay the bursary if they withdraw from the program or fail to meet requirements including examination entry.
