Study in London, United Kingdom this Starting this Summer! The Professor Mike Walker OBE Scholarship for ICT Students
The scholarship was set up in memory of Professor Mike Walker OBE, a name synonymous with the Information Security Group (ISG) at Royal Holloway. Professor Walker joined Royal Holloway in 1966 and he successfully completed his BSc in Mathematics, before becoming the second PhD student to be supervised by Professor Fred Piper, who founded the ISG. He obtained his PhD in 1973.
Throughout his career in industry, Professor Walker maintained his keen interest for academic research and for many years he held the Vodafone chair as Professor of Telecommunications at Royal Holloway, as part of the ISG. In 2002, Professor Walker was instrumental in founding the ISG Smart Card Centre which continues today.
This scholarship is provided as a tuition fee reduction. If your course fee is less than £12,000, only the fee will be covered (no additional cash award will be made).
