Awards & Funds

You have decided to invest in tomorrow鈥檚 talent. But听what's the best way to do it?

Sometimes students may need help to听continue studying, and that is a bursary. Or you may want to support academic merit, which is a听scholarship.

There are obvious advantages on both sides: the students get the help they need, (and often work experience) and the businesses听benefit from听highly skilled听work-ready graduates.

Making the most of opportunities: Santander Universities

Santander Universities works in partnership with Abertay for the benefit of our students. Amongst other funds, it gives students the financial support to make the most of opportunities that they couldn't otherwise afford. As Emma Brough, BSc (Hons) BSc (Hons) Food, Nutrition and Health said:

'As a mature student, I was worried about how I would make ends meet, as I needed to cut back the hours at my part-time job while I was on placement. The Santander Opportunities Fund reduced the financial burden for me and meant I did not need to work听seven days a week for three months!'
