Airtel Nigeria has opened applications for the 2026/2027 Airtel Africa Tech Fellowship, a scholarship programme supporting undergraduate students pursuing information and communications technology (ICT) and other technology-related courses at accredited Nigerian universities.
The programme will support 100 high-performing students from their first year through to their final year of study, subject to the fulfilment of specified conditions.
The fellowship forms part of Airtel Africa’s broader initiative to expand access to technology education and strengthen the continent’s digital workforce. It aims to help young people acquire the skills and qualifications needed to pursue careers in the technology sector.
Airtel Nigeria has encouraged eligible students to apply for the opportunity, which is intended to support their university education and prepare them for roles in the digital economy.
The company said the evaluation and selection process for the fellowship would be conducted by independent management consultants.
