Scholarships

The Academy is no longer taking application for future Scholarships.

We wish you well with your studies and careers.

Role of Academy Scholars

E3 Academy scholars are expected:

• To be ambassadors for the Academy, the company providing sponsorship and the university at which they are studying.
• To maintain a high level of academic progress at university
• To assist in the promotion and marketing of the Academy.
• To attend any seminars, meetings etc as organised by the Academy.
• To participate in the vacation training organised by the sponsoring company.

Please note: The sponsoring company will include in the scholar's contract a clause requiring the scholar to refund a proportion of bursary payments should the scholar decline a reasonable written offer of employment made by 31 October in the year preceding graduation. This clause may be enforced at the company's own discretion.

The Academy applications for 2026 are piloting a new applications process with application day and interviews directly both at Newcastle University. There will be no recruitment for 2026 at Nottingham or Bristol Universities for the pilot trial.
