Ove Arup Foundation Award
William Charnley Anglo-Danish Scholarship
Scholarships are intended to be only a supplement to students’ other funding and will be paid out in two instalments from the beginning of the academic year indicated or such other date as may be approved. The value is currently £2500 per grant. All applicants are required to submit a budget for their study period and two signed letters of recommendation from persons of academic or professional standing.
Each successful applicant will be requested to accept the award confirming that you meet the prerequisite requirements, that a lack of funding will not be a hindrance for the fulfilment of your studies and that you will submit a short report to the AngloDanish Society at the end of the academic year for which the award was given. Also, you will be asked to grant us permission to publicise your award.
Academic and residential arrangements are the responsibility of the student. Any queries should be addressed directly to the University/College concerned. For students coming over from Denmark to study in London we refer to this link.
