AI scholarship boost for University of York

July 26, 2023

Julian was very pleased to receive the news from the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology that the University of York has received funding for scholarships as part of the government’s AI and Data Science Conversion Course programme.

The University of York will receive £610,000 in government scholarship funding for the 2023-24 academic year. Further funding for 2024-25 remains subject to confirmation.
