Oil and gas students can take a share of £15,000 under a bursary scheme organised by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE).
The industry body said yesterday undergraduates and postgraduates on relevant courses at Aberdeen, Robert Gordon, Dundee or Heriot-Watt universities could apply for funding.
SPE Aberdeen section chairman Anthony Onukwu said: “It is vital that we continue to provide as much support as we can for our student members.”
