Partner School and College Scholarships (William Hills)

The William Hills Bursary offers three students £5,000 each year for the duration of their 3-year BEng Mechanical Engineering degree including extended programmes at the University of Greenwich. This bursary is supported by the legacy of William Hills, a former student who studied Mechanical Engineering at what was then Woolwich Polytechnic in 1948 and was dedicated to supporting the education of a new generation of engineers. The scholarship provides financial support to students from partner schools and colleges who are studying level 3 qualifications and will commence their undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering at the Medway Campus in Kent. Priority is given to students from underrepresented backgrounds, including those from areas with the lowest proportion of young people who participate in higher education (POLAR 4 Q1 and IMD Q1), and women in STEM fields. The bursary is awarded in three instalments across each academic year and is automatically renewed for subsequent years following successful completion of each year, with a conditional graduation award after completion of year 3.
