Travel bursary up for grabs

Entries now open for the Ken Dale Travel Bursary

2015 winner, Luke Ramsay

The Ken Dale Travel Bursary 2016 is open for entries. The award offers between £1,500 and £4,000 to CIBSE members – in the developmental stage of their career – who wish to spend three to four weeks abroad researching aspects connected to their field of work.

Last year’s winner, Luck Ramsay, travelled around North America and south-east Asia to investigate ‘Low carbon cooling in data centres: barriers and opportunities’.

Ramsay said ‘The bursary is an amazing opportunity to experience engineering in lots of different contexts. Having the endorsement of CIBSE helped me raise the ambition of my research. I had a jam-packed three weeks where I visited some world-class projects and  met inspiring people. It’s given me new perspectives in my work and provided me with an opportunity to develop a new specialism’

The closing date for entries is 15 April. For more information www.cibse.org/awards
