The funding includes a one-off lump sum to cover travel costs, a monthly accommodation allowance and you will be reimbursed for your international health insurance. This is made possible by an ISAP project (ISAP stands for International Study and Training Partnerships), which in this case is led by the Institute of Mining at our university.

  • Mining Engineering (M.Sc.)
  • Sustainable Resource Extraction and Recycling (B.Sc.)

Two TUC students have already traveled to Windhoek this year as part of the ISAP project. The conclusion of one of the outgoers: " I was excited to be part of the culture of the Namibian people which embraces open-mindedness, respect, and tolerance of diversity. They treated me as a family and felt secure all the time.

Enrich your studies and gain credits and international experience in Southern Africa!
