2025 Nedbank External Bursary Programme

The Nedbank External Bursary Programme aims to support academically deserving students financially, enabling them to pursue their first Undergraduate or Honours qualification at South African public universities or universities of technology. It targets addressing South Africa’s scarce skills shortages, particularly in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM), and skills related to the Green Economy. The Green Economy emphasizes sustainable economic, environmental, and social well-being, focusing on areas that reduce environmental risks, enhance natural capital, and promote energy and materials efficiency.
