Master’s student Hannah Ellerby has been awarded an Engineering, Maths and Computing Postgraduate Scholarship, worth £500, from FindAMasters.com and FindAPhD.com.

Hannah, who is studying MSc Computer Science at Kent, received the scholarship after submitting an innovative website design.

Hannah said: ‘I designed the website to look like a desk. The computer monitor on the desk was interactive and contained the answers to why I wanted to win the scholarship.’

She added: ‘I have done some web coding, but I wanted to learn to programme so I am working part-time while studying part-time for the Master’s degree. I’m really pleased to have won and will put the money towards next year’s tuition fees.’

There were over 2,800 global entrants for the Postgraduate Scholarship initiative competing for 16 Scholarship awards worth a total £9,000.
