WORK WHILE STUDYING AT AFRICAN INSTITUTE

Have you ever considered working within the college as you study? Working while in college is one of the initial steps to gaining financial freedom desired by many students. At African Institute we have several on campus jobs for students to undertake as they studies. This work is done on an hourly basis and the wages are paid on Friday every week. These Wages vary in term of workloads, particular enterprise and the wage policies designed by the college labour committee. Jobs available shall always be advertised at the student notice board and the interested student will fill a job interest form and submit to the office of the campus labour officer. Financial freedom is one of the sweetest privileges to have, especially when you are still an undergraduate in school. Working as a student helps develop attributes of self-discipline, time management and budgeting skills. It is an opportunity to prepare you for the real world once college education is complete.

PAID AGRICULTURAL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM ABROAD

In many ways, agriculture is the main pillar of a functioning society. Industrialized and developing countries alike need to continuously discover new agricultural techniques if we are to keep flourishing. Agriculture internships abroad are opportunities to learn from another country and culture, while experimenting with new innovative methods and gaining invaluable professional experience. Different countries specialize in different areas of agricultural science, so interning abroad is your chance to hone in on what you think most important, and take off from there. African institute are engaging a number farms in Europe, USA, Canada, Asia, South Africa, Egypt, Israel, and Brazil to take our fresh graduates for on-farm experiences as well as to acquire some initial capital to set up enterprises of their dream. Having an internship immediately after or before finishing your last semester with us is the best way to get to know your subject away from the books. Participating in an agriculture internship abroad may just be your chance to make your mark on the field or at the very least the beginning of your career in the field. Getting real work experience and farm knowledge shall help you identify what your preferred enterprises could be after you graduate from our college.

OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR CERTIFICATE STUDENTS

Financial assistance is a necessity for many college students, particularly those coming from disadvantaged families. Majority of these students are also desiring careers that require many years of education especially the one that goes beyond the undergraduate level, yet financial difficulties always hamper their goals. At African Institute, we offer both merit-based and need-based scholarships to certificate students who qualified for any of these scholarships. Our merit-based scholarship especially recognizes and honors the academically talented students and those in the field of athletics to progress to our diploma program. Meanwhile our need-based scholarships are designed to make our diploma programmes accessible to certificate students who would not otherwise have the funds to attend. Our scholarship committee may look at a student more holistically when determining whether to award them need-based scholarship and how much fee cut they should receive under the scholarship.
