What are The Naughton Scholarships?

The Naughton Scholarships are a scheme of scholarships to promote the study of engineering, science and technology at third level by students in Ireland. For 2011, the scheme applies to the counties of Cavan, Donegal, Leitrim, Louth, Mayo, Meath, Monaghan and Sligo (the "Applicable Counties").

Two students from each of the Applicable Counties will be awarded a scholarship. The first place award in each county will be €4,000 for each year of that student's third-level course. The second place award in each county will be €2,000 for each year of that student's third-level course.
