Scholarship Description: The Tullow Group Scholarship Scheme aims to build capacity in areas
where Tullow’s host countries experience significant skills gaps, especially,

with Tullow’s aim of supporting long-term socio-economic development in
countries where it operates. Scholarships are available to those who are
committed to making a contribution to their own country’s development. The
Scheme gives candidates a chance to receive a high standard of education from
internationally recognised institutions, which can then be applied in the
scholar’s home country. The Scheme is managed by the British Council,
which has a great deal of experience in running similar programmes.

-full tuition fees;
-a monthly stipend;
