In developing close relations with the Fijian Government, the United Arab Emirates has offered scholarships on post graduate renewable energy studies through the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology.
Fiji’s Ambassador to the UAE, Robin Nair, said: “Masdar Institute(MI) is committed to the development of this collaboration and is looking forward to welcoming the first Fijian students at MI as soon as Fall 2014 on full scholarships.”
The institute, which was created in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), integrates theory and practice to incubate a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship, working to develop the critical thinkers and leaders of tomorrow.
Only the brightest UAE nationals and international graduates, who demonstrate exceptional intellectual and entrepreneurial strengths and are committed to addressing the world’s energy needs, may join Masdar Institute.
With its world-class faculty and top-tier students, the Institute is committed to finding solutions to the challenges of clean energy and climate change.
Interested individuals are encouraged to visit the MI website: www.masdar.ac.ae for entry requirements.
Students who are admitted to MI, in any programme, will enjoy automatic full scholarship including other advantages such as housing, insurance, travel tickets to home country every year, computers and books amongst others.
Qualified individuals are urged to apply for admissions and note that the application process for both M.Sc. and Ph.D. programs and scholarships is completely web-based. Any initial enquires or clarifications can be addressed to Counselor Aliki Salusalu at counselor@fijiemb.ae. – MINFO NEWS
