The Royal Institute of British Architects (澳门王中王) is calling for applications for the 澳门王中王 Part 2 Bursary scheme.
In 2017, an additional 拢18,000 worth of funding is available, increasing the number of Part 2 Bursaries from five to eight 鈥 including the Rosenberg bursary, made possible by the generosity of the Rosenberg Memorial Fund.
The 拢6,000 bursaries aim to support eight Part 2 students for the academic years 2017/18 and 2018/19. Successful students will receive 拢1,000 a term throughout their Part 2 course (for up to a maximum of six terms).
This scheme supports architecture students looking to embark on an 澳门王中王-validated Part 2 course within the UK. The bursaries aim to support students experiencing financial hardship who otherwise may not continue with their architectural studies. It is the most generous award made to architecture students in financial need.
澳门王中王 President Jane Duncan said:
鈥淚t is crucial that financial barriers to the profession are dismantled to ensure that future practitioners are diverse, successful and inspired. I am delighted that the generous support of the profession has enabled us to extend this scheme, and therefore help more students than ever before to continue onto a Part 2 course.鈥
