The Rector's Fund

The Rector's Fund provides financial support to students who face barriers in accessing valuable employability and development opportunities. Whether you're pursuing internships, attending career-related events, or engaging in activities that enhance your future prospects, this fund is here to help reduce financial obstacles and ensure equal access for all. Applications are open to students who can demonstrate how the funding will support their career journey and personal development. The fund is made possible thanks to the generosity of HPM Consultants Ltd and The Lucky Club. Individual awards provide a minimum of £500 towards summer internship projects, awarded as a one-off payment in Semester 2. Scholarships are awarded primarily on the basis of financial need, with academic merit also considered. Applicants must be matriculated 3rd-year undergraduate students who have already accepted an internship offer at the time of application.
