Testimonials 2016//

I received my Masters grade yesterday and I managed to get a distinction so I’m very happy. Unbelievably I also received the College Faculty of Medicine Dean’s Prize for Cancer Biology for achieving the highest overall distinction mark on the course (85%)! I didn’t even know the award existed so it was a real shock and will certainly help towards my further studies and future career. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the trust for allowing me to undertake this Masters as it would not have been possible without the funding I received from the Grundy Educational Trust. Please pass my thanks on! MRes, Cancer Biology.

I can confirm that I have completed my MSc with an aggregate mark of 78%. I have also been award the 2016 Dennis Hill Award from the Institute of Engineering and Technology that recognises outstanding work in the field of Biomedical Engineering. I would like to take the opportunity to thank the Grundy Educational Trust for their financial support last year. The funding you provided was so essential for me to continue into the second year of my Masters and it undoubtedly enabled me to go on to achieve the success that I have. I will be forever grateful to the generosity of the trust and the trustees for selecting me as a candidate for funding. MSc, Biomedical Engineering.

I am emailing you with great joy as I have completed my MSc course with a Merit. I will be graduating this Friday. I wanted to thank you again as without you and the Trust it would not have been possible. If there is any way I can help with the trust in the future please do not hesitate to contact me. MSc, Civil Engineering.

I just wanted to drop you a line as it has now been nearly 6 years since qualifying as a doctor – and thus six years post having a Grundy Educational Grant at Southampton University for Graduate Entry Medicine. In that time I have completed my junior years, worked in New Zealand and Australia and volunteered in Cambodia. I am currently a junior A+E doctor and figuring out which specialty to choose for the remainder of my career. I thought of you as I recently finished paying off all my student debts, but without the additional funds from Grundy Educational Trust I wouldn’t have been able to study Graduate Entry Medicine.

I was thrilled to gain a Distinction in my MSc last year. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire year and I have since gone on to secure a job in the area of circular economy, something that I am very passionate about. I would like to take this opportunity to again extend a huge thank you to the Trust, who’s support most definitely was an enabler in such a successful and transformational year. MSc, Environmental Engineering.
