Here’s something exciting for students dreaming of careers in science, engineering, or medicine.

A new scholarship opportunity has just been announced — and it’s more than just financial help.

The NIPES Scholarship Programme, in partnership with Chinwe Chinonso Iwuanyanwu (a Fellow of NIPES), is offering a generous ₦1,000,000 scholarship to support passionate young minds on their academic journeys.

Supporting the Next Generation of Scientists and Engineers

This initiative — named the NIPES Chinwe Foundation Scholarship — isn’t just about easing tuition stress.

It’s part of a bigger mission to inspire academic brilliance, nurture local talent, and push for more inclusivity in engineering and science, not just in Nigeria, but on a global scale.

By providing this financial support, the programme hopes to empower students who are aiming high and want to contribute meaningfully to fields like engineering, medicine, pharmacy, and related sciences.

More Than Just Money: Extra Perks for Applicants

Here’s the cherry on top — even if you apply but don’t win the scholarship, there’s still something valuable in it for you.

All applicants get free access to NIPES’s online courses.

That means you can still build your skills, earn professional certificates, and boost your CV with relevant qualifications that’ll make you stand out.

Who Can Apply?

To apply, you’ll need to meet certain eligibility requirements (to be detailed on the official application page), but the programme is mainly open to students who are currently studying or planning to study engineering, science, medicine, pharmacy, or closely related fields.
