Smartphones, laptops and the TV in your home - they all rely on technology that was made possible by research at the University of Hull. Fifty years ago, Professor George W Gray patented the liquid crystal molecule 5CB that made LCDs and flat screens viable. His work is arguably one of the most significant scientific breakthroughs of the modern era. To celebrate this landmark discovery, the University of Hull has created a commemorative scholarship to encourage more international students to study chemistry and, hopefully, follow in Professor Gray’s footsteps.
Opportunity Details
In commemoration of Professor Gray’s landmark discovery of the chemical molecules used in flat screen and LCD TVs, University of Hull is awarding the George W Gray International Scholarship to international Chemistry undergraduates as a way to encourage more international students to study chemistry and, hopefully, follow in Professor Gray’s footsteps.
The scholarship worths £9,000 a year tuition fee reduction for every year of study.
To be considered for a George W Gray International Scholarship you will need to:
Meeting the eligibility criteria and completing an application to study with us does not guarantee that you will receive an award.
The scholarship will not be paid during the placement year of the MChem Chemistry with Industrial Experience when fees are heavily discounted.
There is no need to submit a separate application for the scholarship.
All International offer holders will automatically be considered for the scholarship as part of the application process for Chemistry.
Applications for Chemistry courses starting in September 2023 are now open. You can apply via UCAS or directly to the University of Hull through one of our agents in your country.
Application deadline
You must have applied to study with us by 23 August 2023.
This may close earlier if all awards available for September 2023 entry have been allocated. We recommend you apply as early as possible.
