The Masakh’iSizwe Bursar Programme was established in 2006 by the Department of Transport and Public Works and is committed to offer bursaries to students in the engineering and the built environment fields in South Africa.
Along with the Department of Transport and Public Works, the Masakh’iSizwe Bursary Programme is backed by the Higher Education Institutions (HEI), Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and the relevant professional bodies specific to these fields.
The main aim is to assist underprivileged and financially disadvantaged students. They are particularly focused on awarding the Masakh’iSizwe Bursary to learners from rural areas, women, and students with disabilities. The bursary can be for a degree or diploma.
Closing date of the bursary
The application closing date is the 31st of August each year (31st of August 2021 for this year).
