The EADB scholarship aims to maximize the impact of EADB’s investment into the higher education.
The fully-funded EADB graduate level scholarships will provide full tuition, room and living expenses, within a stipulated budget.
The scholarships are granted to accomplished lecturers and teachers who have agreed to return to their East African universities and continue teaching after they have received their graduate degree at Rutgers University.
The scholarship program will go a long way in helping to increase the number of qualified academics in the STEM fields and strengthen the workforce across science, engineering and technology related employment in East Africa.
To date there have been 9 beneficiaries as at 2017/2018 at the cost of USD450k.
