GB JOBS: British American Tobacco Nigeria (BATN) SCHOLARSHIP SCHEME

British American Tobacco Nigeria (BATN) , in conjunction with British American Tobacco Iseyin Agronomy (BATIA) invites applications from qualified Nigerian undergraduates, for the 2013/2014 Scholarship Scheme.

The Scholarship Scheme is one of our Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives to promote skilled manpower development in Nigeria's Agricultural sector.



In 2005, the scope of the ScholarshipScheme was expanded to include eligible students from across the country. This expansion was based on stakeholder expectations raised at a stakeholder dialogue session. Ten eligible students are awarded scholarships every year for the duration of their study, with five slotsreserved for eligible children of BAT registered tobacco farmers.

In 
the event that the farmers' children do not meet the eligibility requirements, those five slotsare opened up to candidates from tobacco leaf growing communities (not farmers' children). Inthe event that they also do not meet the eligibility requirements, the five slots are opened up to candidates from other parts of Oyo State.

However, students who are children of BAT registered tobacco farmers are now being given the opportunity 
to apply for other courses asides from Agriculture.
