Pls add me on +447586797156

Thank you.

My people...my people.....Pls I need some advice here. I am also waiting for the 2017 list for PhD. I have moved my admission from Sept 2017 to January 2018 but with January 2018 almost over I am a bit confused as to if my university will allow me to move my admission date again as they were reluctant to move it the first time. Even if they decide to move my admission date what is the best date to move it to? if I move it to September 2018 will NDDC be ready to pay for this despite the fact that I am a 2017 scholar?

Pls anyone who can help with some advice I will really appreciate. God help us!

Hello,
A lot of people are seeking to change to date of their interview. That would only be possible if you provide a very good reason why your date should be shifted

Sincerely,

Good Day FlexiSAF Support Team,
I have just received my invite for PhD interview with specific date and time. Would it be possible to move this date to another date due to some other circumstances? If yes please how do I go about this?
Thank you very much.

Actually, I applied for PhD in flow assurance and pipeline engineering. Thanks for your clarification.

Good Day,
I also applied for a PhD in Energy and Power with a bias towards flow measurement and flow assurance. What materials are you using to study for the exam?

Thank you.

gregoryhoma:
I got the invite also.
This is what you need
...based Test on 6/7/2017 by 12PM at the Rivers State University, Nkpolu,PHC. please come along with a valid means of identification

But how are my sure I am not scheduled for another date and time? Did you get an email to support the sms you received?

My fellow nairalanders. I'm in a fix here and I need urgent help from anyone with useful info. I have gotten the invite for cbt as well but for some bizarre reason the middle of the sms got truncated and this was the part with all the venue details and exact date.

This is the exact way the message appeared on my phone.....

"Following the recently advertised 2017 NDDC Foreign Post Graduate scholarship , we wish to inform you that you have been shortlisted for the Computer Bas(......)s License, National ID Card)this SMS and your Registration Slip. Seat No: XXXX Test ID: XXXXX"


Please how do you guys and ladies advise I handle this?

Thank you very much.

My people......congratulations to those who have received MSc invites. Does anyone know wen the invites for PhD interviews will start rolling in too? Thank you.

Good day my people. Does anyone here have an idea of what the PhD exam and interview questions would be like for Energy and Power? Any general tips as well? Pls share on this medium or send anything relevant to kemoguike@yahoo.com. Thank you very much.

kemoguike@yahoo.com.

thank you and God bless you!

Does anyone know the following:
1. Will PhD applicants write CBTs as well or will it be just interviews?
2. What will the interview be like for PhD?
3. When does this interview usually hold compared to the CBTs?

Anyone with these info should please share. Thank you very much and God bless you as you do so.
Kind regards...

PTDF denies cancellation of overseas scholarship scheme

The Petroleum Technology Development Fund, PTDF, has stated that it has not cancelled or intends to stop its overseas scholarship scheme. The post PTDF denies cancellation of overseas scholarship scheme appeared first on Vanguard News.

The Petroleum Technology Development Fund, PTDF, has stated that it has not cancelled or intends to stop its overseas scholarship scheme.

The PTDF, in a statement by its Head, Press and External Relations , Mr. Kalu Otisi, stated that its decision not to cancel the scheme was in view of its continued relevance in building a crop of well-trained Nigerian professionals to effectively manage the critical sectors of the oil and gas industry as well as the academia.

According to Otisi, the intention of PTDF in reviewing the operations of the scheme through its training domestication drive is to increase the involvement of local universities whose facilities and faculties have over the years been massively upgraded by the Fund.

He stated that the Federal Government has invested huge resources through the PTDF in upgrading 26 departments involved in teaching oil and gas related courses in 26 universities, with world class facilities that put them at par with their contemporaries abroad.

He said, “These upgraded universities, some of which have become Centres of Excellence in the teaching and research of specific oil and gas disciplines, are already being used for the training of PTDF scholars at undergraduate and post-graduate levels under the Local Scholarship Scheme of the Fund.

“Part of the domestication policy of PTDF scholarship scheme is to gradually reduce foreign training of our scholars and build up in-country training facilities towards self-sufficiency in oil and gas capacity-building.

“We must emphasize, however, that this new thinking and direction does not in any way translate to a cancellation, stoppage or withdrawal of the overseas segment of our scholarship programme. Qualified Nigerians will continue to be sponsored abroad for training especially in critical subject areas in the oil and gas industry that we currently lack enough capacity for in Nigeria.

“The other limb of the domestication approach is to encourage foreign universities where Nigerian scholars are regularly sent for their Masters and PhD studies to set up branches or campuses of their institutions in Nigeria or go into partnership with the upgraded Nigerian universities for split PhD programmes, whereby aspects of the training and research will be conducted both in Nigeria and abroad. “

Please can anyone here please send the questions to this address as well? kemoguike@yahoo.com. Thank you very very much.
