Does BCS provide any means of awarding students?

Student prizes
A Member Group can provide one student prize to a University with an existing student prize relationship. No new universities will be considered.
(*NB* awards do not apply to further education colleges or schools).

The student prize for each university consists of:

  • Free BCS Membership (either Student (one year or full course), Associate or Professional Membership level) (for one person).

And

  • £150.00 cash prize. (Which can be split into smaller runner-up prizes, if required.)
    The group must include their student prize(s) in their budget submission each financial year against the month the award will be given to the student. Prizes are not honoured outside of their budgeted financial year.

*Note, these type of prizes are paid from the central allocation, though they are attributed to the group. All other type of prizes/bursaries are paid from the group’s allocation.

If the Finance Committee approves the budget request for a prize, the Member Group will be responsible for agreeing on the criteria with the university for presenting the award.

The group must ensure the university understands that the Institute cannot commit indefinitely to providing the same award in future years.

You can submit your request using the Member Group prizes and bursaries request form.
