    To be eligible for a DRS Student Research Bursary, you should:

       • Be a current student member of the Design Research Society;

       • Have a sponsor who is a member of the Design Research Society.

    Details of the Scheme

    The scheme is intended to support design research projects by DRS Student Members.  Applications to help undertake the project (e.g. funds for equipment, prototyping, accessing research subjects, data collection and analysis etc) and where an impactful publication or practical output will result, are favoured.  Co-funding is encouraged.  Applications for travel funds should contribute directly to the research.  Applications to help with social needs or support for students in developing nations to enable the project to be undertaken may be considered.
