Application Guidance
Please download the Application Guidance Notes (to the right of the screen) for detailed instructions on how to apply.
Student applications will be submitted via the grants management system (GMS) and will be reviewed by Research awardees, then ranked by the Internship Scheme panel that includes an Academy Fellow.
Access mentoring
The Academy aims to provide additional support to applicants from groups that are persistently underrepresented within UK engineering through the grant application process. This positive action will contribute to improving diversity in the talent pipeline and widening the diversity of applicants and awardees within the Academy’s research grant schemes.
