        A new scholarship aimed at developing the next generation of artificial intelligence “pioneers” will open to applicants in spring 2026, with the first cohort beginning studies the following autumn.

        The Sparck AI scholarships, named after pioneering British computer scientist Karen Sparck Jones, will give master’s degree university students access to industry-leading firms as the Government looks to boost the UK’s AI credentials.

        The University of Bristol will be one of nine universities to offer the fully-funded Government scholarship, alongside faculties in Newcastle, Manchester and Edinburgh.

        The scheme has been developed in line with the Government’s “AI Opportunities Action Plan”, receiving more than £17 million of funding from Westminster, with the grant covering both students’ tuition and living costs.

        Alongside master’s places, 100 scholars will receive placements in leading AI companies, as well as mentorship from industry experts. It is hoped the scholarships will give students “unparalleled access” to the fast-moving industry.

        Vice-Chancellor Evelyn Welch said the scholarships would give Bristol the chance to “explore bold new ideas and nurture exceptional talent.” Technology Secretary Peter Kyle MP said he believed the scheme would help students secure “highly skilled jobs” and build “a workforce fit for the future.” AI talent acquisition firm Beamery said the scholarships would help their goal to create “equal access to work” and connect “talent to opportunity”.

Synonyms: "industry-leading firms" vs. "leading industrial companies"

Gabarito: ❌ ERRADO. A substituição não preserva o significado equivalente, pois "industry-leading" indica liderança em um setor específico (qualquer indústria), enquanto "leading industrial" restringe a "industrial" (manufatura, produção). Além disso, "firms" e "companies" são sinônimos, mas o adjetivo altera o sentido.

No texto original, "industry-leading firms" refere-se a empresas que são líderes em suas respectivas áreas de atuação (tecnologia, finanças, etc.). A expressão "leading industrial companies" remete exclusivamente ao setor industrial pesado, o que não é equivalente. Portanto, a troca é inadequada.

Conclusão: ❌ ERRADO.
