The Ellison Scholars programme empowers exceptional individuals to become global technology innovators and leaders of the future, solving humanity�s most challenging and enduring problems. Scholars actively contribute to EIT�s innovation projects across its four Humane Endeavours - Health & Medical Science, Food Security & Sustainable Agriculture, Clean Energy and Artificial Intelligence & Robotics, through technological advancements, transforming research into practical solutions and scaling them for global impact.
The programme provides full funding for undergraduate or graduate studies at the University of Oxford, covering course fees, a generous living stipend and the equivalent of paid internships. Alongside their studies at the University of Oxford, Ellison Scholars work on cutting-edge EIT projects that aim to tackle global challenges through technology. These research and innovation projects, conducted as summer internships, are central to the Scholars programme and we seek exceptionally talented individuals with strong collaboration skills and the ambition to make a real impact.
Scholars collaborate with each other and with world-leading experts to solve real-world problems, while pursuing a fully-funded undergraduate degree in any discipline at one of the world�s top universities � the University of Oxford. Places on this programme are extremely limited and highly competitive.
We are particularly interested in students with skills in fields such as computer science, artificial intelligence, economics, mathematics, robotics, plant sciences, machine learning, chemistry, biology, engineering, medicine or microbiology. This list is not exhaustive and strong candidates who believe they have skills that would benefit one of our projects are welcome to apply.
