EDHEC partner EDF, the N°1 French energy group is directing its EDF Theseus-EDHEC MBA Scholarship, worth 50% of the usual tuition fees, at applicants from South Africa and China, areas of particular interest in terms of the group's development. Interested applicants should follow the normal financial aid application procedure and add a 500 word essay analysing The main trends and opportunities in the energy market of your home country (China or South Africa).

Amadeus, world leader in applied technology for the travel industry has also announced that they will offer a 50% scholarship to Asian candidates for the MBA programme, through their Amadeus Theseus-EDHEC MBA Scholarship.  Applicants interested in this scholarship should send the usual financial aid request file with the addition of a 500 word essay analysing The impact of New Technologies (IT)  on the tourism industry in your country.

The EDHEC Financial Aid Selection committee will shortlist candidates, to present to the companies. They will then select the scholar whose profile is most interesting to the company.  These students will not only benefit from welcome financial aid totalling 32 500 euros, but it is also hoped that this occasion will allow the companies to identify interesting profiles that could eventually lead to future recruitment.

These scholarships followed on from last year's end of programme MBA consulting project in which groups of MBA students were placed in these companies as consultants for two months.

MBA applicants interested in applying for these scholarships should send their request to the AdmissionsOffice at the same time as their programme application. Further information about other scholarships offered by EDHEC can be found here.
