Encouraging our youth through
scholarships
The ADWEA scholarship program encourages today's youth to pursue
a degree in higher education. This means they'll be prepared and
qualified to lead our country and the world in the future. We
provide unique opportunities for successful students to continue
their education so they can do just that.
Providing valuable
opportunities
Our scholarships program was created in 2000 to help UAE
National's strengthen their technical, communication and analytical
skills through rigorous academic programs and hands-on job
experience. In our first year, 60 secondary school students
received scholarships to study at the Higher Colleges of
Technology and the United Arab
Emirates University. Today, more than 260 students have
completed degrees in engineering; while over 1000 have been awarded
scholarships to study at universities around the world.
The Scholarship program offers valuable opportunities to ADWEA
Group Employees to continue their higher education. ADWEA
understand the importance of investing in employees to create a
balanced and well-rounded work environment; we offer tuition
assistance for study both within the UAE and abroad.
ADWEA recognizes the need to encourage UAE National's in the
pursuit of their postgraduate qualifications, particularly in
technical disciplines and specialist fields. ADWEA Group, as an
alternative to the study leave and scholarship programs, grants
tuition assistance to qualified employees in order to allow them to
continue their educational pursuits while they maintain their
present employment status.
Since 2000, 41 employees have benefited from study abroad and 43
received tuition assistance as part of ADWEA's program.
