Nedbank External Bursary Programme For South African Citizens

Apply for The Nedbank External Bursary Programme supporting academically deserving students with proven financial need to take their first steps toward achieving their dreams and obtaining their first undergraduate degree.

About Nedbank External Bursary Programme

The Nedbank External Bursary Programme (bursary) aims to fund academically deserving students who do not have the financial means to study full-time towards a first undergraduate degree or diploma at a South African public university or university of technology. The aim of the bursary programme is to address South Africa’s scarce-skills shortages, with a specific focus on green economy skills.

In short, a green economy promotes sustaining and advancing economic, environmental and social well-being. Green-economy skills refer to those areas of study that focus on improving human well-being and social equity, while also significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities. Green-economy skills include reducing carbon emissions and pollution, increasing energy and materials efficiency and enhancing our natural capital.
