Following the March 2018 deadline and a thorough peer review process, the Trust is pleased to be able to support a total of 59 new projects led by Early Career Researchers in the Scottish universities. The successful projects, covering a wide range of academic disciplines, received funding totalling £495,627 with an average grant value of £8,400.
In recent weeks, the Trust has received two generous legacies from former students who were funded by the Trust during their studies. The donations will enable the Trust to continue providing living costs bursaries to the recipients of the Carnegie Undergraduate Tuition Fee Grants.

Undergraduate Tuition Fee Grants support students who do not receive public funding towards their tuition due to previous study, academic repeats or residency issues. The Trust is now accepting applications for academic year 2018-19 from eligible students studying for an undergraduate degree in Scotland.
The Carnegie Trust is delighted to announce the names of the 112 undergraduates who have been awarded Carnegie Vacation Scholarships. Students at all of the fifteen Scottish universities will be conducting individual research projects during the summer months in subjects ranging from computer science, environmental studies to engineering or philosophy and law.
The silver medal is awarded each year to the Scholarship candidate judged to be the most outstanding for that year' competition. The medal was introduced in 2003 to mark the contribution of the retiring Chairman of the Trust, Sir Lewis Robertson, who served the Trust for over 40 years.
