The Bursary Fund enables students facing financial barriers to study the Sustainability Leadership for the Built Environment (SLBE) programmes.

Since 1994, SLBE (originally titled Interdisciplinary Design for the Built Environment) has facilitated the integration of skills between specialists from different background disciplines to improve project design. This includes the collaboration between disciplines, with clients, and with the supply side of the industry.

From its beginnings as the first part-time master’s at Cambridge, SLBE has grown into an internationally recognised programme, enhancing skills and creating future leaders in the built environment.

To provide more accessible and flexible study options, the Programme has offered a Postgraduate Certificate award since 2019.

SLBE equips students with a strategic understanding and practical expertise in the built environment. These unique skills improve career prospects: some graduates progress within their firms, move into more specialised or strategic roles, or pivot into a new venture.

The Bursary Fund, originally prompted by alumni support, aims to mitigate financial barriers for awarded students. It supports CISL’s aim to provide transformational education for students who may have experienced social, economic or educational disadvantage.
