About This Opportunity

The scholarship has been generously donated by the Sir William Tyree Foundation. It provides financial support to students who can demonstrate financial need, financial disadvantage, or social disadvantage. The scholarship is awarded based on academic results, supporting documentation demonstrating disadvantage, a personal statement explaining the impact of receiving the scholarship, and a statement showcasing passion for engineering and career aspirations. Recipients must maintain satisfactory academic performance and participate in the Tyree Foundation Scholars Network, which offers networking and professional development opportunities through events and programs such as mentoring.
