The Trust supports students to meet particular travel costs associated with their course in the UK or abroad.  This award does not cover day to day travel to your place of education. Examples include attending an educational institution abroad in order to present a paper as part of your course, or if you need help meeting travel costs for placements which are an essential part of your course e.g. Medical Student placements. 
To apply, students must:

  • Provide information on why you need the award;
  • Demonstrate what any award will be used to fund

Architecture

The Ian Baker Bursary

In 2010, a generous donation was made in memory of the benefactor’s father, Ian Baker, who was a professional architect and artist. The benefactor wished the money to be distributed annually to any student studying architecture in Scotland (not just in Glasgow).  This is for architectural students who wish to travel within the UK and abroad over holiday periods for the purposes of observing differing styles of architecture and cultures. Awards are up to a maximum of £500.
