FAQs
What is the TotalEnergies EP Scholarship for Nigerian students and what does it cover?
The TotalEnergies International Masters Degree Scholarship, offered in partnership with NNPC Limited and supported by the TotalEnergies Foundation, is a fully‑funded opportunity for young Nigerian graduates to pursue master’s programs in France in fields like Management Sciences, Engineering, and Geosciences (related to oil and gas). The scholarship covers tuition fees, accommodation, travel costs (including flight and visa), monthly stipends for living expenses, and sometimes health insurance, depending on the cohort.
Who is eligible to apply for this scholarship?
Applicants must be Nigerian citizens who have obtained a university degree with at least a Second Class Upper classification, awarded no earlier than five years before application. All candidates are expected to have completed the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). Additionally, applicants should be interested in pursuing master’s degrees in the designated disciplines in France.
How competitive is the selection process, and how many students are chosen each year?
The scholarship is highly competitive. For example, over 7,400 applicants applied in 2020 for just ten spots. Since 2019, approximately ten outstanding early‑career Nigerian graduates have been selected annually. Many alumni have since secured employment either in Nigeria or abroad, demonstrating the program’s rigorous standards and prestige. Fondation TotalEnergies
