In 2021, Enterprise Rent-A-Car established an inaugural Business and Management Scholarship. Following this success, Enterprise Rent-A-Car has extended its support ten-fold with a five-figure donation to establish ten postgraduate scholarships. Launching in September 2022, five will be Business and management-focused, and a further five Sports scholarships are planned for 2023.
