During 2022, Sasol awarded 255 bursaries to undergraduate, postgraduate and university of technology students for the 2023 academic year, studying in South Africa. Around 560 students are currently studying on Sasol bursaries.

The bursaries are open to learners who are planning to study towards a B. Eng. or B. Sc. Eng. in various engineering disciplines or for a B. Sc. in Chemistry and Metallurgy as well as B. Eng. Tech. in various disciplines. If you’re a highly motivated learner interested in a STEM career, this is your opportunity to apply for a bursary that will help secure you a better future.

“Our bursary programme isn’t just about developing our own pool of talent for the future — it is about developing a STEM ecosystem that helps our nation to be more competitive and create better opportunities for the youth,” said Monica Luwes, Manager of the Graduate Centre at Sasol.

“If you want to help innovate for a better world and solve problems for our communities, a career in STEM might be for you. If you’re granted one of our bursaries, you will not only gain tertiary education but also the opportunity to start and succeed in your career for the new decade.”

Luwes adds: “South Africa is facing a profound shortage of STEM skills. If you are in Grade 7 about to choose your subjects for matric, it’s a great idea to consider studying Mathematics and Physical Science. Good passes in these subjects will enable you to study STEM degrees at tertiary level. Remember, you will be using your Grade 11 results for your initial applications to universities and for bursaries.”

The bursary covers tuition fees, accommodation, meals, pocket money and an allowance for a laptop and a calculator. It also provides comprehensive bursary support to help you to reach your academic potential and to maintain your personal well-being.
