BSc Ecology
UEA provided the place for me to get to know myself and be myself - Do different is UEA’s motto - and it helped us all be individuals. I met so many different people and did so many things. I learnt more about the academic and social side of life from this one place. The atmosphere was always friendly and no one felt like a stranger at UEA. I worked at the Union Bar, helped out with clubs, attended great lectures and even kept fit! There is no better place to be for that part of your life! It’s a place where I worked and played hard!

The Conference fund is designed to help graduate students with expenses incurred in attending academic conferences during their course of study at UEA, when they cannot obtain funding from any other source such as their school or sponsor. Please note, the fund supports attendance at academic conferences only; it does not provide support for any other activity such as expenses incurred in travelling to carry out research. A maximum of £100 can be paid per claim. Two claims are allowed per year, but these must be in different four month claim periods.
Please contact your school of study before you attend an academic conference whilst completing your degree.

Royal Literary Fund Fellowships
In 2000 The Royal Literary Fund (RLF) set up a scheme of Fellowships at universities and colleges. An RLF Fellowship lasts for one academic year and involves one-to-one tutorials, held on two days a week, which help students develop their academic and expository writing skills, focussing on such issues as researching and structuring essays, clear presentation and expression, writing abstracts and CVs. There may also be occasional seminars but in general the rest of the week is free for the Fellow to concentrate on her or his own work.
