The DPG Miller Bursary

The DPG Miller Bursary offers a £1,000 bursary to an undergraduate student studying Engineering at Cardiff who is domiciled (outside of their studies) in Malaysia.

Background

The Warrant Officer DPG Miller Bursary was set up by Donald Miller in memory of his late uncle, Donald Philip Glynn Miller (BSc 1940) who graduated with a Bachelor of Science in mining engineering from the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire, a founding college of Cardiff University. Tragically, in February 1945 and aged just 24, Warrant Officer Miller was killed while serving with the Tactical Air Force.
