Eligible persons have the opportunity to pursue their studies abroad, as the government through the Ministry of Public Service has limited scholarships available through collaboration with the Governments of Argentina and Malaysia.

This is integral to the government’s vision of modernising and training public servants to be effective, especially since Guyana is experiencing a massive economic transformation.

  • Structural Engineering – MEng.
  • Biochemical Engineering – MEng.
  • Chemical Engineering – MEng.
