UCB Announces the Fifth Year of their Crohn's Scholarship Program
Crohn's Academic Scholarship
UCB is proud to once again offer 30 one-time scholarships for up to $10,000 each in 2010. This opportunity extends to participants diagnosed with Crohn's disease who are seeking an associate's, undergraduate, or graduate degree, or who are enrolled in a trade school educational program.

The deadline to apply is February 12, 2010.

This is the fifth year UCB has had the opportunity to support those living with Crohn's disease with the Crohn's Scholarship Program. The program aims to help these students continue their education and live beyond the boundaries of their disease.

UCB, Inc., is a global biopharmaceutical company committed to developing innovative treatments for inflammatory diseases such as Crohn's disease. We're dedicated to creating unique programs and tools to aid those with Crohn's in fulfilling their educational ambitions.

We are proud to sponsor a scholarship program that recognizes and rewards your ability to take control of Crohn's — and not allow it to control you.
