AIRTEL LAUNCHES FULL TECH SCHOLARSHIPS FOR CBU.
=============================================
Airtel Zambia has launched the Airtel Tech Fellowship, a five-year, fully funded scholarship programme sponsored by the Airtel Africa Foundation - with 25 scholarships for CBU first-year STEM students. Each beneficiary will receive fully paid tuition for five years, accommodation, a brand-new laptop, monthly data connectivity, a monthly living allowance, and a guaranteed internship placement.

Speaking during the launch, CBU Vice Chancellor Prof. Imasiku Nyambe commended Airtel for giving young Zambians an opportunity to pursue their dreams- reminding all that financial vulnerability must never be mistaken for lack of ability, ambition or potential. Drawing on the proverb that it takes a village to raise a child, he said this scholarship was that proverb in action, reflecting the spirit of Ubuntu.

And Airtel Managing Director Hussam Baday reiterated a fundamental belief of the organization in creating impact by investing in the education of citizens.

The launch was graced by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education, represented by the Director University Education Brian Makufele who commended Airtel for its continued contribution to education.

Applications are now open and prospective first year students enrolled in eligible programmes at CBU are encouraged to apply using the link below:
