About the Scholarship Sponsor:

Originally called “Chalmersska Slojdeskolan” and established in 1829 in Gothenburg, Sweden, Chalmers University of Technology was established with the goal of providing access to higher education for economically disadvantaged youth. As a tribute to William Chalmers, one of its most vocal advocates, the area bears his name. The organization’s first president was Carl Palmstedt, an industrialist. They are officially recognized as a “Engaged University” by the Accreditation Council for Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities (ACEEU). 

Some of its affiliated groups are the European University Association (EUA) and the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research (CESAER). Presently, there are 13 specialized divisions at the school. Aside from the traditional academic departments, the university is home to a wide variety of interdisciplinary research centers, national competency centers, and other centers. There are two separate campuses of the university in Gothenburg, Sweden. The oldest and largest campus in Johannesburg is located in the heart of the city, in a neighborhood known as Johanneberg. 

 

Construction, materials, and power are the main areas of interest. The Lindholmen campus can be found on Norra Alvstranden, north of the Gota River, in a rapidly developing and progressive section of town. There are many innovative companies in the areas of mobile communications, intelligent transportation, and digital media in this area. Excellent classroom, dormitory, and dining establishments, as well as support services, are available on both campuses. The university’s Department of Space, Earth, and Environment is home to the Onsala Space Observatory, which houses radio astronomy research equipment. The university provides postgraduate and graduate degree programs in the fields of architecture, engineering, biology, chemistry, communication, science, material, physics, mathematics, space, management, mechanics, marine sciences, shipping, microtechnology, and nanoscience.

The university has almost 80 different countries represented among its 10,000 students and staff of 2744. There are collaborations with institutions such as the Swiss-based ETH Zurich, Ireland’s Trinity College, Italy’s Polytechnic University of Milan, Germany’s RWTH Aachen University, and the Netherlands’ Delft University of Technology. A wide range of student exchange and study abroad programs is made possible by these collaborations. The university supports its students’ pursuit of career goals and offers several promising employment options. Many famous people are among the university’s more than 60,000 alumni.

Participate in study tours to relevant workplaces and hear from influential industry figures who will be giving guest lectures.
