Info: Hnd, B.sc/b.tech, M.sc, Ph.d Students Majoring In Geosciences

Hi all, thought i should share this info here. Pass on the Message to your friends and Family.



The Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists-University/Polytechnic Assistance Program (NAPE-UAP) announces its Grants-in-Aid Program for 2007. The Program is sponsored by benevolent leaders/corporate organizations in the field of geoscience.  These individuals/organizations have made substantial contributions to the UAP teaching and research programs in Nigerian Tertiary Institutions.

The purpose of the program is to provide financial support for research in the geosciences leading to the award of B.Sc./HND, M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees. A minimum of 2.50 CGPA for B.Sc. and 60% aggregate M.Sc. must be achieved to qualify for support. Monetary awards range from a minimum amount of N35,000 to a maximum of N100,000 for postgraduates, and N15,000 to N50,000 for undergraduate students.

For prudence, these grants will only be awarded once to a qualified applicant pursuing a M.Sc. degree, and twice for B.Sc. and Ph.D. Programs. Repeatability will be based on the academic excellence displayed by an applicant.

To apply, please contact the head of your department to obtain copy of the application forms or visit NAPE website at www.nape.org.ng to download application forms and other details. Submit your duly completed application forms and all supporting documents on or before September 30, 2007 to:
