The Victoria Fernandes Scholarship in Engineering at University of Warwick, UK

The Victoria Fernandes Scholarship has been established by The School of Engineering in memory of one of our former PhD students, Victoria Fernandes. Victoria sadly died shortly before submitting her PhD thesis in 2006. Vicky (as she was widely referred to) had obtained a first class Warwick MEng in 2003 and continued onto our research degree programme, examining aspects of cementitious materials and their application to low-cost housing in the tropics. Throughout her studies she was ill with an infection that often incapacitated her, yet after every medical setback she returned to her studies with renewed determination. Her commitment to completing those studies was exceptional and extraordinary and she consciously risked her life for them. This Scholarship has been established in recognition and memory of her commitment, dedication and courage. She set an example for us all. The School of Engineering is pleased to invite applicants for this fully funded PhD Scholarship in Engineering. The Scholarship will pay an annual stipend at the standard rate (currently £13,590) and Tuition Fees at the Home/EU rate. Overseas applicants are welcome to apply but, if successful, will have to pay the difference between the Home and Overseas Fees.
Applications are welcome in any branch of engineering that are in line with the School’s research interests, amongst others these include; systems modelling, biomedical engineering, complex systems engineering, communications, photonics, intelligent systems, image processing, materials, power electronics, sensors, ultrasonics, thermal engineering, civil and water engineering, renewable and sustainable energy, fluid dynamics and optical engineering.

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Undergraduate Scholarship for International Students 2011: Accountancy, Finance, Applied Biology, Biotechnology, Biomedical Engineering, Building Services Engineering, BBA, Chemical Technology

Due to the differences in education systems, school-leaving qualifications that are acceptable for entrance to universities in other places may not necessarily be acceptable for entrance to an undergraduate programme at PolyU. To be eligible to apply for admission to our full-time government-funded (HKALE-entry) bachelor’s degree programmes, candidates who have studied under a non-local curriculum are expected to have achieved an academic standard equivalent to GCE A-level, or have satisfactorily completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma or the first year of university education.

The guidelines are for reference of students who wish to seek admission to PolyU based on non-local qualifications  . If you marginally fail to attain the grades or scores specified for certain qualifications, you may still be considered for admission if you have excellent performance at the selection interview. If you do not have any of the following qualifications but have other acceptable qualifications, you may be considered for admission to our full-time bachelor’s degree programmes taking an additional foundation year.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 31 March 2011
