RUCGC Foundation Bursary Scheme 2020
The RUCGC Foundation is delighted to launch applications for its 2020
Bursary scheme. These provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for officers
and staff to explore potential policing innovations through travel outside
Northern Ireland. Up to £5,000 and three weeks of research leave is
available.
The Bursaries are a core part of the Foundation's mandate to support
policing innovations and are delivered in partnership with Ulster
University and PSNI. They aim to support individual officers and staff in
their professional development and contribute to improvements and
innovations in policing in Northern Ireland. We encourage proposals that
demonstrate why applicants are passionate about their idea and which can
demonstrate how they will build support within PSNI to make the innovation
real.
