The Chaudhary Scholarship has been created to help support young people from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds looking to build meaningful future careers in the life sciences.
Those studying Biology, Human Biology and Applied Science at Bede Sixth Form College in Billingham can apply for small grants to assist with the purchase of equipment to enhance their studies such as IT equipment, publications and journals, assistance with travel and accommodation expenses for university visits and attendance of appropriate seminars and conferences.
New for the 2024/25 academic year, the scholarship has been launched by former Education Training Collective (Etc.) governor, Subhash Chaudhary MBE, following his retirement from a 50-year career at FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies and its predecessor companies, ICI, Zeneca, Avecia and MSD.
