Stage 2 occurs in late January - mid February.
We will short list applications in early January. Candidates who make it onto the shortlist will be invited to an interview via videoconference with the selection panel. This panel consists of computer scientists and lay persons, so please avoid technical jargon and make your presentation accessible, but do convince us of the rigour of your work. You will be asked to present for your work for 7-8 minutes.
Decisions on applications will be made in February. Applicants may be invited to receive the award at an event in March if they are able to travel to London.
The Rabin Ezra Scholarship Trust is a charity run by volunteers, so we do not have the capacity to enter into correspondence concerning the reasons for accepting or rejecting applications.
