(a) to provide support to UK-resident undergraduate students, admitted to the University from disadvantaged backgrounds, in their studies at the University, particularly (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) in the fields of science, technology, mathematics and engineering;

The University may in its absolute discretion in the period ending 21 years from the date of this regulation, instead of applying the income of the Fund in any year, accumulate all or any part of such income by investing the same and the resulting income; provided that the University shall apply the whole of such accumulated income in any subsequent year as if the same were income of the Fund arising in the then current year.

5. The University shall have power to pay out of the income of the Fund all reasonable costs of and incidental to the management and administration of the Fund.

6. The University may exercise any of its corporate powers in the management and administration of the Fund insofar as those powers are not inconsistent with these Regulations.
