A bursary from Investec is for so much more than just providing financial support for your degree. Investec places a significant emphasis on the development of well-rounded individuals so that graduates are not only academically qualified but also ready for the workforce, socially conscious, and economic participants who are a part of society rather than living outside of it.
Investec provides full-cost bursaries to students in Grade 12 or their first year of tertiary study who wish to pursue a full-time undergraduate degree in Commerce, Business Science, Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a Commercial LLB, as well as Medicine (MBCHB).
