To be eligible, applicants must satisfy the following criteria:
• Must be a UK permanent resident.
• Must have applied to join the MSc starting October 2021 at Warwick University and have been accepted and enrolled onto the course prior to it starting. ?
• Hold a relevant engineering, geology or mining-based degree from a recognised institution.
• Must not be in receipt of a bursary or financial award from another source.
To apply, complete the application form (available on the BTS website at https://britishtunnelling.com/) and then send it by email only to bts@ice.org.uk
