MacElroy Energy Research Bursary

The MacElroy Energy Research Bursary was launched in 2019 to recognise early and emerging postgraduate talent in their broadly-defined research into energy conversion, storage and policy aspects.

The bursary is awarded to an outstanding research graduate student based on a submitted essay which demonstrates a deep understanding of their aspect of Energy Research and outlines their contribution to the field. 

The bursary value is a maximum of €2,500. The School thanks Prof MacElroy for his generosity in making this wonderful award possible.

Rehan Anwar won a bursary for his highly interesting and engaging essay and presentation on his energy-research topics. Rehan pictured with Prof MacElroy at the SCBE Seminar Day 2024.
