The Rees Jeffreys Road Fund is once again running its Transport MSc Bursary programme for the academic year 2024-25, with up to eight £10,000 packages set to be awarded for the academic year.
The Trustees said they are ‘hoping to encourage more applications to study for a transport related MSc – both from people who are new to the sector and people who are currently employed in the sector who may wish to add to their professional skills or knowledge’.
Bursaries are available for a wide range of topics and are aimed at students who would not otherwise be able to afford to study. Payments will be released in stages over the period of study to cover course fees.
Applications are welcome from students of any age and background, including applicants who are mid-career and for both full and part time studies.
Anyone interested in studying for a transport related MSc should speak to one of the 13 universities who run transport related MSc programmes listed on the Rees Jeffreys website.
All enquiries from potential students should be made via the university, rather than contacting the Rees Jeffreys Road Fund directly. The deadline for universities to apply for a Bursary on behalf of students is 10am on Friday 28 June 2024.
Chair of the Trustees Ginny Clarke said: ‘We are keen to continue the life work of our founder William Rees Jeffreys by supporting today’s highways professionals to have access to high quality professional education.’
