Fast track your STEM career

You’re already positioned to gain a degree well respected by industry. Now gain a competitive edge with an ECS scholarship. An Ada Lovelace Excellence Scholarship from ECS will help to enhance your career, even before you start your undergraduate student journey. You’ll be positioned alongside a small group of elite students and alumni who have been recognised as potential leaders in their fields.

As excellence scholars you will enjoy being part of the scholar’s network within ECS, with additional social activities, and access to mentoring from academic and career staff.  Ada Lovelace was the first programmer, who realised that Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine could be used for more than just calculations. At ECS we want to foster a diverse new generation of people who will also change perceptions of digital technology and lead the field in new directions.
