The University of Edinburgh (UoE) and the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) are pleased to invite eligible scholarship applications for the MSc by Research in Sustainable African Futures. Please note that recruitment is for an online Masters programme only, and there is no affiliated funding for an associated WESAF doctoral programme. Description If you have reviewed the eligibility criteria on the website at https://www.wits.ac.za/wesaf/ and believe you meet the criteria, please proceed to apply to MSc by Research in Sustainable African Futures. We recommend you consider the following when completing the MScR Sustainable African Futures application form: Save the form regularly: while the form can be saved and returned to at a later date, it does not auto-save, so please ensure you are regularly saving your application content. Use a laptop/desktop if possible: while the application form is accessible by a smartphone, it is easier to complete the application on a laptop. If you complete it by phone, please ensure you hit ‘submit’ once you have completed the application in full. Saving it alone does not constitute submission. Submission is final: once you have submitted your application it is no longer possible to edit it again. Scholarship application before University application: if the WESAF Scholarship is the only scholarship you are interested to apply for at the University of Edinburgh, please apply for the scholarship only. DO NOT apply directly via the UoE Admissions until invited to do so. For further information, including a preview of the narrative questions in the application form, please read the FAQS at https://www.wits.ac.za/wesaf/.
