Bursary description
Armscor, recognised as the Armaments Corporation of South Africa, has partnered with the defense sector to extend bursaries to exceptional students through the Armscor Bursary Scheme. The primary objective of this initiative is to address the scarcity of science and engineering expertise within the defense industry. It places a particular emphasis on improving the performance of Mathematics, Science, and technical subjects in schools. These bursaries are targeted towards learners hailing from disadvantaged backgrounds who aspire to pursue full-time academic studies in the fields of engineering and science.
