Royal Haskoning DHV Bursary 2022/2023

The company is offering financial help to eligible students in the form of bursaries. The Royal HaskoningDHV bursary is meant for students pursuing a Bachelor’s degree (any year of study) and facing a financial crunch.

The two main selection criteria are academic performance and financial need.

For the academic year 2022, here are the fields of study where the bursaries will be awarded:

• Civil Engineering (BSc or BEng)
• Mechanical Engineering (BSc or BEng)
• Electrical Engineering (BSc or BEng)
• Data Science (BSc)

The funding amount will depend on the financial need of a particular applicant. So depending on the need, they might be eligible for 100% coverage of their tuition cost.

Through this bursary, the company aims to help unprivileged students and meet the engineering labor demand in the country.
