The scholarship programme is part of the company’s efforts to support education and human capital development while encouraging more young women to pursue careers in technical and professional fields.

Eligible applicants must be Nigerian female students enrolled full time in their second year at a Federal or State owned university accredited by the National Universities Commission.

Applicants are also required to have a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.5 on a five point scale.

The scholarship is merit based and can continue through the student’s undergraduate programme, provided recipients maintain the required academic and ethical standards.

The application process is free, and candidates are expected to submit relevant academic and identification documents through the designated scholarship platform.

The deadline for the 2026 application is September 16, 2026.

The scheme comes at a time when increasing attention is being paid to encouraging women to participate in engineering, environmental and technology related disciplines.

By supporting students financially throughout their university education, the programme could help reduce some of the financial pressures that prevent talented young people from completing their studies.

For eligible female undergraduates, the scholarship represents not only financial assistance but also an opportunity to remain focused on their academic goals while preparing for careers in Nigeria’s engineering and technology sectors.

Interested candidates should carefully verify the eligibility requirements and submit their applications before the stated deadline.
