IET Postgraduate Scholarships
What are they?
The IET Postgraduate Scholarships aim to encourage excellence in research in the fields of electrical, electronic, communications, manufacturing or power engineering at a university in the United Kingdom.
Applicants must be undertaking a recognised research degree in the United Kingdom. The Scholarships are not intended to support post-doctoral research work at universities. Awards may only be made to members who are registered as either full time or part time (fee paying) research students within the United Kingdom. Applicants must be in receipt of adequate provision towards the cost of fees and maintenance from the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC) or other source.
These Scholarships are financed from bequests given to the Institution by the late Mr P S Hudswell (a former member of the IET) who left a substantial bequest to assist members with research, and the late Joseph William Beauchamp, who left a bequest to assist members with their education.
Three Scholarships are available each year. They are each worth a maximum of £1,250 and are tenable for one year.
