Young Scientists to get extra funding

PLANS to achieve a record number of entries for next year’s BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition could be boosted by increased funds to help schools get to the event.

BT has increased its travel and accommodation grant that supports schools and students who might have difficulty entering because of financial constraints for the January 2012 competition.

The €75,000 fund is a 50% increase on this year’s fund. More than €250,000 has been given to almost 600 schools over the past seven years to help them travel and stay in Dublin for the event. .
