How you can make the most of your scholarship

Hear from Allianz scholars and scholarship alumni about their personal experiences and the ways they have benefitted from an Allianz sponsored scholarship.

  • Meet Hantao – scholarship alumnus

    Investment Manager, Allianz Investment Management SE 

     

    “Visiting the Allianz Campus was definitely the most memorable moment during my scholarship. Allianz was initially a remote concept to me: Fortune Global 500, the largest insurance company in Germany. The visit to the Allianz office has brought the company and the colleagues closer to us as students, who did not have direct engagement with Allianz then. Besides, as the scholarship was honored to students with different backgrounds I took the opportunity to exchange a lot of ideas with the other students, which was as valuable as the financial support per se.”

  • Meet Isabella – current scholar

    Master student in Finance and Information Management at Technical University of Munich, and Intern in the Enterprise Data Office, Allianz Global Investors

     

    “As a single mother of two very young children, receiving the scholarship has significantly alleviated my financial burden, allowing me to prioritize my studies and strive for academic excellence without the added strain from having to juggle work and studies. My internship placement provided invaluable firsthand experience in asset management. This opportunity accelerated my professional growth, offering exposure and expanding my network far beyond what I would have achieved otherwise.”

  • Meet Salvatore – scholarship alumnus

    Data Analyst Associate, Allianz Italy

     

    “I decided to stay with Allianz after my scholarship because of the numerous opportunities and support the company offers. During my scholarship, I had the chance to experience Allianz's commitment to talent development, innovation, and global impact. The company's values align with my own, and I was impressed by the diverse range of career paths and growth opportunities available within Allianz.” 

  • Meet Samira – current scholar

    Bachelor student in Management Information Systems and Business Analytics at University of Minnesota

     

    “Future scholars can make the most out of their scholarship with Allianz by putting themselves out there.  You can either decide to look at this scholarship as simply a fund for school, or you can think of it as a vast network of people who are trying to help you. It's important to be driven because I believe you get out what you put in. If you are constantly putting yourself out there, attending different events, meeting new people, you will gain so much insight and skills that will help prepare you for the future.” 

  • Meet Galle – current scholar

    Master student in Mathematics Applied to Finance and Insurance at Paris Sorbonne

     

    “Scholarships are not available for all courses and being able to do one is a serious advantage. And if you are lucky enough to be able to do it with Allianz, go for it! To give yourself the best possible chance, I would advise you to apply highlighting your skills, academic and non-academic achievements, professional experience and also your hobbies. You also need to be well prepared for the interviews so that you can be sure of showing your enthusiasm and motivation.”

Selection Criteria

  • At the time of the scholarship selection process, applicants must have received an offer of a place to study at the University of Cambridge. This includes full academic assessment by a department or Faculty of the University, which is fully independent of Queens' College. Queens' College will then use the academic ranking information provided by each Department/Faculty to inform our decision making.
