British American Tobacco Nigeria 2013/2014 Undergraduate Scholarship

British American Tobacco Nigeria (BATN) ,
in conjunction with British American
Tobacco Iseyin Agronomy (BATIA) invites
applications from qualified Nigerian
undergraduates, for the 2013/2014
Scholarship Scheme.
The Scholarship Scheme is one of our
Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives to
promote skilled manpower development in
Nigeria’s Agricultural sector.
In 2005, the scope of the Scholarship
Scheme was expanded to include eligible
students from across the country. This
expansion was based on stakeholder
expectations raised at a stakeholder
dialogue session. Ten eligible students are
awarded scholarships every year for the
duration of their study, with five slots
reserved for eligible children of BAT
registered tobacco farmers.
In the event that the farmers’ children do
not meet the eligibility requirements, those
five slots are opened up to candidates from
tobacco leaf growing communities (not
farmers’ children). In the event that they
also do not meet the eligibility
requirements, the five slots are opened up
to candidates from other parts of Oyo
State.
However, students who are children of BAT
registered tobacco farmers are now being
given the opportunity to apply for other
courses asides from Agriculture.
