Awards from the Zochonis Special Enterprise Fund will be made to assist with the cost of a project or special study which demonstrates enterprise or originality of thought in planning and execution. You can apply if you are currently registered with us. We can also accept group applications.
If your application is successful you will be required to submit a report to the Student Finance Team within 3 months of your return (e.g. before November if your travel takes place in the summer). The report must be no more than 1,500 words and written in non-technical language on their project or special study while abroad. Photographs can be included. A proportion of the award (£50, or 10% of the award if total award exceeds £500) will be withheld until we receive the report (the remainder of the award will be forfeited if we do not receive the report within this timescale). A sum of £600 is set aside for the award of prizes for the best project or special study reports (£200 for Best Report and £400 to be split between up to 4 other deserving reports).
