About the Scholarship Sponsor:
Bangor University is a public research university that was established in 1884 and was formerly known as the University College of North Wales. It is located in North Wales, which is located in the United Kingdom. During the nineteenth century in Wales, there was a drive to provide more opportunities for higher education, which eventually led to the founding of this institution. Residents of the surrounding area, most notably farmers and quarrymen, made voluntary donations from their wages in order to assist in funding its development. This helped to keep the cost of the building down. 1911 was the year that saw the dedication of the primary building of this university, in addition to a few buildings devoted to the arts and social sciences.
After gaining the right to confer degrees, the institution began using its current name to do so in the year 2009, when it also began awarding degrees.
