Aston University is offering an amount of £10,000 towards tuition fees of selected students. This scholarship opportunity is jointly funded by Aston University with the UK government’s GREAT Britain campaign and the British Council.
The Charter of Aston University outlines objectives appropriate to a technological university: “to advance, disseminate and apply learning and knowledge by teaching and research, for the benefit of industry and commerce and of the community generally: and to enable students to obtain the advantage of a university education, and such teaching and research may include periods outside the University in industry or commerce or wherever the University considers proper for the best advancement of its objects.”
The University’s Arms were granted on 18 March 1955 by Garter, Clarenceux and Norroy and Ulster Kings of Arms to the Birmingham Corporation for use by the former College of Technology. They were designed to show the College’s connection with the city and with the teaching of technology.
Special emphasis is given to the placement year system, and the maintenance of strong links with industry and the local area, arise naturally from the institution’s history. Aston University is very conscious of the important role they have to play in society and ensures that all students, staff, communities, and business partners succeed to their full potential, regardless of background.
