PTDF Scholarship No longer Available

According to the Executive Secretary of Petroleum Technology Development Fund, PTDF, Dr Bello Gusau, The PTDF scholarship  has been disbanded and that plans are underway to replace it with suitable local programs.

The  current scholarship arrangement which is disproportionately focused on Overseas Scholarship Scheme, was no longer sustainable and therefore, needed to be reversed, he added.

The presentation was made to the Vice Chancellors of Federal Universities in Nigeria to intimate them with the  new strategic agenda that will govern the training and capacity building programmes of the Fund.  He added that more Nigerian content will be explored to ensure that that qualified students can get the same training at the Nigerian Universities.

PTDF Scholarships has been offered to hundreds  qualified Nigerian citizens annually  to cover full expenses for Overseas and in-country MSc and PhD studies.
