PUBLIC EVENT
The Engineering Leaders Scholarship webinar and Q&A is designed for students interested in applying for one of the UK’s most prestigious opportunities for early-career engineers. This session offers a clear and practical guide to the scholarship, helping attendees understand what the programme offers and how to create a strong application.
The webinar will begin with an overview of the Engineering Leaders Scholarship, including its purpose, the qualities it looks for in applicants, and the combination of funding, mentoring, and leadership development it provides. Participants will gain insight into the application process, including tips on showcasing leadership potential, academic achievement, and personal strengths effectively.
Attendees will also learn about the wider benefits of being a scholar, such as access to leadership training, professional development opportunities, and a network of peers and mentors. This helps participants see not just the immediate value of the scholarship, but also its longer-term impact on personal and professional growth.
The Q&A segment allows students to ask the scholarship team questions about eligibility, application strategy, and what makes a successful application. This interactive element ensures that attendees leave with practical advice tailored to their own circumstances.
By the end of the webinar, participants will have a clear understanding of how the Engineering Leaders Scholarship works, what is expected in an application, and how it can help develop their leadership skills and engineering career. We highly recommend this webinar to any student considering applying and aiming to stand out in a competitive selection process.
