Why Sciences and Engineering?
The fact that science course, medical and engineering are considered most for scholarships in developing countries, does not erase the significance of other disciplines.
In most African nations, the needs for scientific and technological improvements (if not revolution) is realistic.
To develop these world leaders who can proffer the needed economic solutions and and to fill the already existing gaps, governments and institutions have been offering scholarships for students to acquire the necessary skills.
Science and Engineering are core among career paths that help in the development of skills that defeat the ever-evolving world.
And in a narrow opinion, the SNEPCO Scholarship 2020 still stick to the original path of providing less privileged students with the opportunities to strengthen their might of solving problems, through medicine, sciences and engineering.
