Nordic Aviation Capital (NAC) and Cranfield University have launched the NAC Women in Aviation Scholarship Fund. The goal of this annual scholarship is to promote diversity and inspire a new generation of women in the business and engineering fields of aviation.
The scholarship is initially a four academic year commitment from 2022 until 2025. Each year, two outstanding female candidates will be selected and awarded the scholarship, one from the MSc in Air Transport Management (ATM) and one from the MSc in Aerospace Vehicle Design (AVD).
The scholarship award may be used towards tuition fees, accommodation, living expenses, or other costs directly related to the candidate’s MSc.
