Student Bursaries
Universities, companies and institutions can give students the opportunity to be part of this exciting Festival by purchasing either one or a number of the BA's student bursary packages, for the price of £330 each.
The BA Festival of Science provides an excellent opportunity for students to immerse themselves in current debate, and meet leading scientists and speakers. it also gives them the chance to engage in the wide range of science topics highlighted at a variety of events throughout the week. Not only this, but the Festival is a hot spot for media attention and a vibrant social scene, whatever your age or background.
All of the events featured are tailored for non-specialists, as are the debates, exhibitions and social events which form such an important part of the experience.
The opportunity to attend the Festival is one that should not be missed, and by being awarded a BA Festival of Science bursary, students can experience the event to the full, as the package we provide caters for their every need.
The feedback from past attendees has always been very positive:
"A really excellent scheme – it’s fantastic for students to be given the opportunity to attend such an event, - not to mention inspiring about science in general!" (Student bursary attendee 2007)
“It provided an arena for networking with other students/professionals doing the research I hope to be doing myself, and helped cement my goals for after I finish University.” (Student bursary attendee 2005)
“The Festival proved a wonderful forum for meeting interesting people working in science. I found the setting, atmosphere and content of the festival to be relaxed, friendly, stimulating, and I feel privileged that UCL and the BA made it possible for me to attend.” (Student bursary attendee 2006)
