Prior to attending Harper Adams University, Molly studied at Askham Bryan College for a Level 3 Advanced Technical Extended Diploma in Land Based Engineering. Molly is from a farming background and lives with her family on an arable farm in Darlington. When she’s not studying, Molly enjoys racing a V8 stock car, a sport she has been actively involved in since she was 12.
Summing up on how she felt to be awarded this year’s CLAAS Scholarship, Molly commented; “To be a CLAAS scholar and have my placement with the company, is something I have wanted to achieve since I started my journey in the world of agricultural engineering. I am beyond excited for this opportunity, and I cannot wait to start this experience!”
CLAAS UK has enjoyed very close ties with Harper Adams for many years, both through the CLAAS Foundation, but has also sponsored PhD thesis and research work at the University and also provides work placement opportunities for a number of students each year. Many of these have gone on after graduation to be awarded training and career opportunities at CLAAS UK.
