Eni-Oxford Africa Scholarships for M.B.A. Study at U. of Oxford

The Eni-Oxford Africa Scholarships Programme, funded by the energy company Eni, awards up to two scholarships during each admissions cycle to high potential African students to pursue a Master’s in Business Administration at the University of Oxford, in the United Kingdom.

The scholarships are open to candidates who are ordinarily resident in one of the African countries in which Eni operates. In the Arab region, these include Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia.

The scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit, as demonstrated in candidates’ applications to the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School. The awards cover the full M.B.A. course fees, living expenses, and one return airfare.

Eni is an international integrated energy company with a strong presence in Africa, which supplies more than half of the company’s crude oil and natural gas production. The company supports scholarships and collaborates with prestigious universities in Europe and the United States to enhance its business expertise.
