Overview/Details

Sappi offers undergraduate bursaries for Engineering and Forestry Science degrees at South African universities. The bursary supports students pursuing qualifications in chemical, civil, electrical, industrial, mechanical, and mechatronics engineering, as well as forestry and wood science.

The bursary can cover tuition, books, accommodation, and a living allowance. The value awarded depends on the student’s household income.
