University of Ibadan, with funds provided by the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), is pleased to announce a limited number of full scholarships for the 2009/2010 academic session in the university of Ibadan
beginning in September 2009 to pursue Master’s programmes in the following fields:
(i) Plant Breeding and (ii) Seed Production, both in the Department of Agronomy
(iii) Plant Pathology in the Department of Crop Protection and Environmental Biology Eligibility
The university of Ibadan scholarships are open to candidates from Nigeria, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso and Ghana, although a higher proportion of the university of Ibadan scholarships will be awarded to Nigerians. Applicants must possess a good first degree of an institution recognized by the University of Ibadan senate and fulfil the university of Ibadan’s admission requirements for postgraduate studies.
Priority will be given to candidates who are already working in the agricultural sector where they will return and put to use the knowledge acquired. Female candidates are encouraged to apply. Applicants from Francophone countries must show evidence that they are able to undertake a programme of instruction delivered in English. However, arrangements are in place for successful French-speaking candidates who require improvement in their English to attend a language course for two months before resumption.
