Check back on this page on Monday 6th January, or sign up at the bottom of this page to receive a notification when the form goes live.

 

WHAT DO I GET OUT OF IT?

It’s a two-stage application with the final stage being an assessment day. The winner will receive a scholarship which pays for their tuition fees at Birmingham City University’s Faculty of Computing, Engineering and the Built Environment.

WHY SHOULD I APPLY?

It’s not just about the winner or winning, if you make it to the final you will be invited to participate in developmental workshops that will focus on supporting your personal development and professionalism in both interview and presentation skills.

Winning the scholarship was the best thing that ever happened to me. I would highly recommend studying Real Estate, which has so far included law, the built environment and the latest technologies. The scholarship has also helped me as I learned presentation and research skills that have given me a head start with my degree as I recently did a presentation on Politics and how it influences the built environment.
