£2,500 bursary winners:

  • Haikrishnan Radhakrishnan

The bursaries are awarded to students attending Aberdeen, Robert Gordon, Dundee and Heriot-Watt Universities; and to those studying a degree relevant to the oil and gas industry, at an under-graduate, post-graduate or PhD level.

Students were required to demonstrate an intention of working in the oil and gas industry on completion of their studies, as well as academic merit and active involvement in the SPE.
