It was an atmosphere of excitement, inspiration and pride at Telecel Ghana’s annual event to award scholarships to exceptional female engineering students from universities across the country.
Ten final year female engineering students from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), University of Ghana (UG), University of Cape Coast (UCC), Ghana Communication Technology University (GCTU) and the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT) were announced as recipients of this year’s scheme.
The Telecel Ghana Female Engineering Students Scholarship Programme (FESSP), introduced in 2011, has supported and empowered 90 brilliant female final year engineering students through mentorship, financial aid and tech tools.
Through FESSP and other talent diversity improvement initiatives, Telecel Ghana aims to tackle gender imbalance in telecom engineering and inspire more young women to pursue technical careers in the field.
