New Award Scheme for Full-time MSc Students

Launched by the Royal Academy of Engineering in collaboration with Petrofac

The Petrofac Royal Academy of Engineering Fellowships for the Enhanced Graduate Engineer are aimed at graduate engineers who wish to pursue a career in the oil and industry but have decided to enhance their skill set first by studying a full-time Masters’ course in a related subject.

The generous award package on offer not only includes financial support of £9,000 but a number of other learning and development opportunities including a company mentor, work placements and where appropriate a company sourced major project. In certain cases Petrofac may offer awardees employment on completion of the course.

The full-time MSc course in Offshore Engineering at Newcastle has been selected as one on which to tenure these awards in 2009.

Full details on the scheme in addition to the on-line application facility are available through the link:
