The NNPC/TotalEnergies ETT Fellowship program presents an extraordinary chance for Nigerian scholars to enrich their academic experience by spending a semester at the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Sponsored by MISTI (MIT International Science and Technology Initiative), NNPC Limited, and TotalEnergies Upstream Nigeria Limited (TUPNI), this fully funded teaching-focused fellowship aims to nurture talent and drive socio-economic development in Nigeria.
Partnership for Educational Excellence
By collaborating with renowned local and international academic institutions, the NNPC/TotalEnergies ETT Fellowship program seeks to elevate the standards of engineering education in Nigeria.
Through strategic partnerships and investments, the initiative aims to create impactful transformations in the Nigerian tertiary academic sphere, fostering innovation, problem-solving skills, and creativity among students.
Empowering Nigerian Scholars
The fellowship program serves as a laboratory for innovation in engineering education, providing Nigerian scholars with access to world-class resources and expertise at MIT.
This immersive experience not only enriches their academic knowledge but also equips them with the skills and perspectives needed to contribute meaningfully to Nigeria’s development upon their return.
Addressing Educational Challenges
Recognizing the challenges faced by African universities in adopting a problem-solving and innovative approach to science and engineering education, the NNPC/TotalEnergies ETT Fellowship program seeks to address these issues head-on.
By investing in quality education and fostering partnerships, the initiative aims to reverse the retrogression in standards observed in Nigerian tertiary institutions due to neglect and lack of investment.
Driving Impactful Change
As the fellowship program unfolds, it holds the promise of driving impactful change in the Nigerian academic landscape.
Through hands-on learning experiences, mentorship, and exposure to cutting-edge research, Nigerian scholars participating in the ETT Fellowship are poised to become catalysts for positive change and innovation in their respective fields upon their return to Nigeria.
