How to apply

You can apply by email at any time, as there is no fixed application deadline.

How realistic are your chances?

This funding programme is narrowly defined: it is aimed at students of natural sciences and engineering who are linked to a specific company and its focus on the steel sector, meaning that the pool of applicants is small. If you are studying one of the preferred subjects, have good grades and demonstrate a genuine interest in the steel sector, your chances are good. As there is no fixed application deadline, it is advisable to apply early and clearly demonstrate your motivation.
