Canon Collins Sol Plaatje Scholarships 2022 at South African University

The Canon Collins Trust in collaboration with Sol Plaatje Educational Project are inviting highly intellectual students in Some African countries to take on their ongoing opportunity to further their academic carrier in South Africa for the 2022-2023 academic session.

The scholarship programme is a fully funded one and often considered as one of the best masters scholarship program by the charity organisation, though the award covers both PhD applicants for research. The organisations will provide funding for the both masters and PhD programs up to 2 years, and will continue depending on the satisfactory progress and academic reports.

Interdisciplinary courses and doctoral studies may sometimes defy easy categorization. Applicants are urged to use their judgement in assessing whether to apply. But applications that clearly do not fall within these areas (for example MBAs, medical sciences, sports sciences and applied sciences) will not be considered for an award. In 2023, climate justice will be a priority. Climate Justice related scholarship applications may be in a science or applied science field as long as the application can demonstrate its relevance to climate justice related matters.
