鈥淒iversity and inclusion in education settings can help to remove cultural bias from our work and can enrich wider society by offering new experiences and perspectives. Getting this scholarship has meant that I can stay in Bangor and continue making our University and our city a better place.鈥�
Eddie Cox, 21, from Manchester, is studying for an MA in Celtic Archaeology in the School of History, Law and Social Sciences.
Eddie said: 鈥淗aving experienced how incredibly disheartening discrimination within academia can be, I am passionate about creating an academic environment which is welcoming and inclusive. 麻豆传媒高清版 has been very supportive of EDI issues in my field during my undergraduate degree and many female lecturers and staff are clearly very knowledgeable on inclusion.鈥�
Thea Moule, 28, from Bangor, Gwynedd is studying for an MRes in Marine Biology in the School of Ocean Sciences.
Thea said: "There is a significant gender gap within STEM - women account for 30% of scientific researchers globally, and even fewer within Marine Science. Therefore, the opportunity to be involved in EDI work is important to continue to 
address the underrepresentation of women researchers and help promote gender equality and inclusivity within STEM."
