The Agricultural Economics Association of South Africa (AEASA) established
the BD Nomvete Bursary Trust Fund with the aim to provide financial support
for students to complete a PhD programme in Agricultural Economics or an
approved related discipline.
The Trust will allocate a bursary to a successful PhD applicant for the 2023 academic year.
The bursary amount is R50 000 per annum per student over
two years, with maximum of three years.
Eligible candidates are students registered or admitted to study for a PhD
in Agricultural Economics or an approved related discipline at an
accredited university in South Africa on a full-time basis for the academic
year 2023. Priority will be given to those from previously disadvantaged
backgrounds (particularly women). Candidates with other forms of
financial support will not qualify for the bursary.
Interested candidates can request application forms from AEASA
