2024 University of Reading African Real Estate Society (AfRES) Scholarships for African Students.

The University of Reading African Real Estate Society (AfRES) Scholarships represent a vital opportunity for African students looking to advance their careers in the real estate sector. Established by the University of Reading in collaboration with the African Real Estate Society (AfRES), these scholarships are designed to support outstanding individuals from Africa who demonstrate a strong academic background and a genuine interest in real estate studies.

One of the key objectives of the AfRES Scholarships is to promote diversity and inclusion within the real estate profession by providing access to higher education for talented individuals from underrepresented regions. By offering financial assistance, the scholarships aim to remove barriers to education and empower African students to pursue their academic and professional aspirations in the field of real estate.

The University of Reading, renowned for its expertise in real estate and property-related disciplines, provides an ideal academic environment for scholarship recipients to thrive. With access to world-class faculty, cutting-edge research facilities, and a vibrant campus community, students have the opportunity to acquire specialized knowledge and practical skills that are highly relevant to the real estate industry.

Moreover, the AfRES Scholarships go beyond financial support, offering recipients the chance to engage with the wider real estate community through networking events, mentorship programs, and industry placements. These opportunities enable students to build valuable connections, gain insights into industry practices, and enhance their employability upon graduation.

In essence, the University of Reading African Real Estate Society (AfRES) Scholarships serve as a catalyst for empowering African students to become future leaders and professionals in the real estate sector. By investing in their education and professional development, the scholarships contribute to the growth and sustainability of the real estate industry in Africa and beyond, while also fostering greater diversity and inclusion within the field.

Please note that the ‘Humanitarian Scholarship’ and our ‘University of Dundee Afghan Women’s Scholarship’ draw on the same budget for funding. This budget allows us to fund approximately 24 fully-funded scholarships. However, the number of awards allocated to each scholarship is determined by University of Dundee after the closing date. This allocation is made according to the volume and relative quality of applications received. As a University of Sanctuary, the University also reserves the right to create new scholarships which draw from this fund in response to global developments.
