In addition to the £1,000 bursary, successful applicants will also have the opportunity to undertake a placement at Meridian during the course of their studies.
To apply for the bursary, applicants should submit 500 words on the subject “Why the world needs more magnesium products”. To find out more about the scholarship criteria and submit your entry, visit our scholarship page.
