Published 7 years, 1 month ago

The SOLTRAIN Bursary Programme aims to support the work of the SOLTRAIN project in SOLTRAIN partner countries, and to motivate students at universities to do their masters thesis in the field of solar energy.

The bursary supports travel costs to visit another institution in Southern Africa for further study or experimental work, equipment costs to conduct experiments to support research, and the running cost of experimental work or further studies.

You can read more on last year’s successful applicants here.

This year’s application form can be downloaded at this link. Please distribute it to your local networks and note that the closing date for applications is the 16 November 2018.
