Zutari Bursaries 2023

Zutari is inviting qualifying students to apply for Bursary Programme 2023 academic year.

Bursary Application Closing Date: 30 September 2022

Bursaries will be awarded for BSc or BEng undergraduate degree studies, in the following fields:

• Chemical Engineering
• Electronic Engineering
• Industrial Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering
• Civil Engineering
• Electrical Engineering
• Mechatronics Engineering and other related disciplines

Academic performance will be reviewed in June and in November each year, after receiving student’s exam results. Students will then continue to receive funding if their results are satisfactory, however, students who do not satisfy the minimum requirements will have their funding placed on hold until results improve.

Shortlisted candidates will be contacted and invited to panel interviews. Candidates will then be selected based on 4 main criteria: academic performance, the field of study, financial need, and interview score.

Once students have graduated, they are required to enter into the Zutari graduate recruitment process, whereby they will be placed in a graduate role – graduates will complete one year of work for each year of bursary funding received.
