The Cargill Global Scholars programme will provide financial support, leadership development and enrichment opportunities to nearly 200 talented and high-performing undergraduate students in five countries. The selected individuals will be chosen based on their demonstrated high level of academic performance and leadership potential.
Pat Bowe, corporate vice president at Cargill, said: “Cargill has long been committed to improving the communities in which we operate, and supporting higher education is part of this commitment.
“The Cargill Global Scholars programme will succeed when these students go on to become important leaders in their respective communities and industries and be part of a global network of programme alumni.”
Students who are selected as Cargill Global Scholars will receive scholarship funds of up to $2,500 per year for up to three years and will be invited to take part in a series of leadership and enrichment activities designed to enhance their critical thinking skills and equip them with the tools necessary for becoming leaders and decision makers in their chosen fields, according to Cargill.
