Overview
Heriot-Watt University Dubai’s open Engineering Merit Scholarship offers 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% merit levels for qualifying direct Year 2 engineering entrants.
Complete scholarship details
The scholarship is based on the net first-year tuition fee after other scholarships or discounts and that discount value is spread across annual instalments. Published thresholds vary by curriculum. The university’s example shows a 50% Civil Engineering scholarship equal to AED 32,550, distributed as AED 8,137.50 per year over four years. Recipients must maintain at least a C in all courses each academic year.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must qualify for direct entry into Year 2 of an eligible undergraduate engineering program and meet the published academic, subject and English-language criteria. Final direct-entry decisions are made by the course director.
Tips for this scholarship
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Official page shows status Open. Percentages apply to the net first-year tuition-fee value and are distributed over study; they should not be read as a blanket multi-year tuition waiver. No deadline is stated.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
