CIBSE Bursary News from the academic year 2009-10 KEN DALE 2010 TRAVEL BURSARY
Are you in the developmental stage of your career?
Would you like to spend up to 4 weeks researching building services engineering overseas?
The Ken Dale Travel Bursary makes awards available of between £1,500 and £4,000 to CIBSE members in the developmental stage of their career who wish to spend three to four weeks outside their own country researching aspects connected to their field of work and which will benefit CIBSE, their employer, their clients and the profession. CIBSE is especially keen to encourage applicants to take-up the award for research that articulates CIBSE’s concern for the environment.
The Bursary also offers the candidate the opportunity to experience technical, economic, environmental, social and political conditions in another country and to examine how these factors impact the practice of building services engineering. Go to: www.cibse.org/bursaries to download an application form and for terms and conditions.
