Schemes for Undergraduates

  • Engineering Leadership Advanced Award Scheme for Undergraduates (formerly Engineering Leadership Awards), Best Programme

    A programme to provide support and motivation to some of the most exceptional engineering undergraduates in UK universities.

    The objective of these Awards is to allow ambitious, inspiring engineering undergraduates, those who want to become leadership role models for the next generation of engineers, to undertake an accelerated personal development programme. They will get the opportunity to acquire the skills needed to fulfil their potential, moving into an engineering leadership position soon after graduation.

    The Awards provide motivation and mentoring support for some of the most exceptional engineering undergraduates in UK universities. Awards worth up to £5,000 per student are made to provide MEng students, over three years, with carefully planned training and experience, which would otherwise have been unavailable to them.

    Applications for the 2007/2008 awards have now closed, but applications for the 2008/2009 awards will open in autumn 2008.

  • Engineering Leadership Standard Award Scheme for Undergraduates (formerly the Undergraduate Programme), Best Programme

    The programme is designed to encourage university students to further develop their interest in engineering as a career through a series of activities. In 2008 the activities are comprised of:

    • Personal Development Courses - WILD1 and WILD2

    • NCGE/RAEng Flying Start Rally

    • RedR/RAEng course: “So you think you want to be a Relief Worker”

    • Renewable Energy Technologies Course

    • Any recognised Professional Development Course, Conference or Seminar in Engineering

    The programme is open only to students who have participated in one or more of the Best Programme's pre-university schemes: Young Engineers, Smallpeice Trust, Engineering Education Scheme, Headstart and the Year in Industry. Invitations to join the Engineering Leadership Standard Awards Scheme are sent out automatically in the year that students commence their engineering degree at university.

    For more information on either of the above schemes, please email Sandra Palmer
