Scholarship amounts are also deducted by 10% for undergraduate engineering students, again all the way through their course. The standard first-year scholarship award is £2,670, however this varies depending on course.
Some courses, for example Architecture and Biomedical Engineering have different fee levels and scholarship value is directly affected by this.

Scholarship Eligibility:
To be qualified for the scholarships, a student needs to satisfy certain requirements. The students must be from international locations (non-EU). They also need to be self-funded students who have received an offer in the Faculty of Engineering to undertake a full-time undergraduate degree course starting on September 2024.
