To this end we have created the Harmony Bursary Scheme which awards successful applicants, bursaries for full time study at accredited tertiary institutions. The scheme covers tuition and residence fees, the cost of prescribed text books and also provides a personal allowance.
The scheme is designed to contribute to the development of historically disadvantaged South Africans.
For the year 2015 preference is given to the following fields which are functional to the mining industry:
- Mechanical Engineering
- Electrical Engineering (Heavy Current ONLY)
- IT (Information technology)
