Eskom Engineering Degree Bursary Programme for 2027

Eskom offers bursary support to develop engineering skills needed in the electricity and energy sector. Its 2027 Engineering Degree Bursary Programme included a Grade 12 applicant route for South African learners who are currently in matric, as well as applicants who completed matric in 2025 and plan to begin their first year of engineering studies in 2027. Applicants must meet the academic requirements and other conditions in the live Eskom bursary advert.

The official advert identifies this as an engineering degree opportunity. Applicants interested in electrical engineering should check the current discipline list and qualification requirements in the Eskom application portal before applying. The award conditions, covered costs, renewal rules and any service obligations are governed by the bursary agreement and should be checked directly with Eskom.

The 2027 Grade 12 application deadline was 22 September 2026. This record is retained as a closed 2027 opportunity; it is not an indication that applications are still being accepted.
