The Queen’s Jubilee Scholarship Trust (QUEST) was set up in 1977 to support and encourage education in civil engineering.
What is QUEST?
QUEST’s most popular award is the Undergraduate Scholarship, which is for students who are about to start university. But don’t worry…there’s still lots about QUEST that you may not know, and ways in which you can benefit.
What’s on offer?
QUEST offers other awards like the Technician Scholarship, the Travel Award, and the Continuing Education Award that you might be eligible to apply for. Check out the links and see how you could still benefit from QUEST.
How a QUEST scholarship can help
Andrew Snowball and Joel Sharp (ICE North East) were winners of the ICE Technician Scholarship last month, and only had great things to say about it:
Joel: “The QUEST scholarship has not only helped me financially in that I will use the scholarship grant to buy books and software for my work and education, but also in terms of personal growth. The interview helped me to see how much I have learnt and progressed since joining AECOM.”
Andrew: “The scholarship has relieved the stress of meeting the cost of travel, books and equipment needed for my studies, and also further demonstrated to my employer my dedication and motivation to advance my career.”
