Rees Jeffreys Road Fund launches the MSc Bursary scheme for the academic year starting in 2025.
The Trustees of Rees Jeffreys Road Fund are continuing their commitment to support study at MSc level for people wishing to study road or transport related subjects.
Studying for an MSc can make a great difference to an individual’s career.
Dr. Antoneta Horbury was awarded a bursary in 1992 to study for an MSc in Transport run jointly by Imperial and UCL. Dr.Horbury is now the Director of Policy and Technical Affairs at the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and has the Bus Centre of Excellence within her team. She says, “I have enjoyed my career in transport enormously and I am very grateful to the Rees Jeffreys Road Fund for making it all possible.”
You can read more about Antoneta’s experience on our Bursary case study page here.
The Fund will provide up to eight Bursaries for MSc students starting in the academic year 2025. The Fund is keen to support people thinking of starting a career in the roads and transport sector, as well as supporting people who are already mid-way through their career and wish to progress their professional knowledge and expertise.
Bursaries are available to support study in a range of subjects including engineering, management and planning in relation to roads, highways or transport. Applicants may be studying full time or part time but must demonstrate a commitment to a career in highways or transport. The Bursary is provided in staged payments over the period of study. The Bursaries are aimed at students who would not otherwise have the means to pay for the study fees.
All enquiries about undertaking MSc study and making an application to the Rees Jeffreys Road Fund for a Bursary should be made directly to the fourteen universities listed on the Fund website here. Universities are provided with the full terms and conditions of the Rees Jeffreys Road Fund MSc Bursary scheme, and the application form which must be endorsed by the university making the application on behalf of the student. The deadline for universities to submit applications to Rees Jeffreys Road Fund is 5pm on 27th June 2025.
