To find out about another great project which has been funded by\u00a0the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Fund<\/a>\u00a0(EDIF),\u00a0I spoke to<\/em>\u00a0Dr Laura Delgaty<\/a> <\/em> and student, Jenny Peal, about Student Equality and Diversity Bursaries.<\/p>\n

The project, led by Laura Delgaty, who’s part of the School of Medical Education, aims to\u00a0“support and encourage student led small scale equality and diversity research at Newcastle University”.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"The project had been awarded \u00a32,500 from the EDIF, which was distributed between 6 students in the form of bursaries.<\/p>\n

Three bursaries of \u00a3250 each were awarded to Undergraduate students from each of the three Schools, and a further three scholarships of \u00a3500 were awarded to Postgraduate students, again one from each of the three Schools.<\/p>\n

One of the students who was provided with an Equality and Diversity Bursary was Postgraduate student Jenny Peal, from the School of Medical Education.<\/p>\n

Jenny’s project was aided substantially by the bursary she was awarded. She studied 15 female cardiologists who worked and trained in a male-dominated environment, focusing on the impact this environment had on their success and development. The process of writing up the interview transcripts could take up to 5 hours at a time. This lengthy process, alongside full-time work, was only made possible thanks to the \u00a3500 bursary Jenny received.<\/p>\n
