Applications for the 2024 Wallace Family Scholarship are now closed.
The Wallace Family Fund for Engineering was established in 2016 by engineer Paul Wallace, a graduate in 1958 from Bolton Street. It was with the financial support of a generous donor that Paul himself had the opportunity to study engineering at the then Dublin Institute of Technology. He went on to have a long and fruitful career as an engineer in both industry and academia. Sadly, shortly after establishing the fund Paul passed away at his home in the United States.

The aim of the Wallace Family Scholarships for Engineering is to award talented and committed students who will make their mark on the world of engineering. 1 new student is chosen for two years of support of €4,500 for their 3rd and 4th year of study. Students interested in applying for the Wallace Family Scholarship will be asked to demonstrate academic performance, their engagement with the world of engineering outside of the class room as well as their articulate their future career aspirations.
