We are here to help financially aid engineers of the future
About us
The Trust is a private bursary scheme established in 2010 to provide financial support to students from the two high schools in Clydebank (Clydebank High School and St. Peter the Apostle High School) to study engineering at the University of Glasgow or the University of Strathclyde.
​
The Trust is a Scottish Charity, registered with OSCR (the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator).
The purpose of the Trust is to:
-
Provide financial support to students from Clydebank High School and St. Peter the Apostle High School who have been accepted on a full time engineering degree course at the University of Glasgow or the University of Strathclyde.
-
Encourage students at the two high schools to enter into engineering degree courses at Glasgow and Strathclyde Universities.
-
Assist students at the schools who may find it difficult to accept a place at university for financial or other reasons.

"I'm very grateful that the Titan Engineering Trust has awarded me a bursary; it has made a great impact on my first year at University. Being autistic means that I struggle a lot with getting the bus on my own and I would struggle studying and having a part time job. The bursary has really helped me financially so I can focus on my studies and it has taken away the stress of finding part time employment." 2nd Year Undergraduate.

“Thanks to the Titan Engineering Trust, I have been able to contribute my time while at University to interesting and inventive societies. I have been able to participate more fully in group projects and activities with my classmates, and have had the opportunity to study abroad, appreciating and learning from a new culture. I can’t overstate how important these experiences have been for me and the Trust’s role in breaking down the economic barriers involved. I look forward to all other opportunities afforded to me as a result of the Trust’s generosity.” Final Year Undergraduate.

"The support from the Titan Engineering Trust has been truly meaningful throughout my time at Strathclyde. Studying engineering comes with many challenges, and while it’s incredibly rewarding, there are times when the financial burden adds extra stress. Some projects require us to buy our own materials, which can be expensive, and the bursary has helped ease that pressure. It has also given me the freedom to focus more on my studies without the constant worry of juggling part-time work and coursework. Because of this support, I’ve been able to engage in extracurricular projects, attend industry events, and fully make the most of my university experience. The generosity of the Trust has made a real difference, and I know it will continue to help future students pursue their ambitions in engineering.” Graduate MEng 2025

"The Titan Engineering Trust has provided me with an amazing opportunity to make the most of my time at University. I have been able to take part in societies and interships that otherwise I would not have been able to complete. Having financial stress taken off me has made University a more enjoyable and optimistic experience as I have been able to focus more on the future rather than worrying about the present. I would like to thank The Titan Engineering Trust for their continued support throughout my studies and would encourage anyone considering applying to go for it!." Graduate MEng 2022.
''Being part of the Titan Engineering Student Sponsorship Programme has given me the opportunity to carry out first year at University with confidence, courage and the ability to fully concentrate on my studies. Not only has this program allowed me the valuable time to study it has also brought me the wealth of knowledge and understanding from other students on the program through our meet ups. This has proved invaluable in breaking down any fears or barriers I may have had in relation to first year exams. I would really like to thank Titan and I hope to be part of this program throughout my university life" Graduate BEng 2019.
