Asian Institute of Technology

Dear All,

In the President's Weekly Letter (6 Feb 2012), he announced the following:

"The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through the Norwegian Embassy
in Bangkok, will offer scholarships to qualified Myanmar nationals to
pursue their master's degree programs at AIT. Under this scholarship
program with a total budget of 30 million NOK (approximately 160 million
Baht), up to 40 master's students per year for 3 years will be recruited
starting from August 2012.

Any Myanmar national who meets the AIT admissions requirements are eligible
to apply for the scholarships to study at any relevant field of study
available at AIT. Applicants from different sectors such as, but not
limited to, the public sector, private sector, civil society organizations,
ethnic communities, non-governmental organizations, and unit sites are
welcome to apply. The attractive scholarship package will cover all tuition
and registration fees, research grant, bursary and accommodation and other
study associated costs for a pre-bridging program (up to 4 weeks in
Myanmar), bridging program at AIT (up to 8 weeks), and the master's degree
program. A return air ticket between Yangon, Myanmar and Bangkok, Thailand
will also be provided.

In addition to the AIT admissions application forms, applicants need to
submit a 3-page essay (in the Myanmar language) explaining the reason for
applying to AIT and how they can contribute towards the future development
of Myanmar in the short, medium and long term. In order to receive a
qualified pool of candidates from the different sectors, AIT will
coordinate a national level pre-screening step, pre-selection interview
panel in Myanmar, followed by a final selection by the AIT schools."


Please disseminate this information and also help in recruiting qualified
applicants from Myanmar.

Thanks,

        EPOP is an online study program designed to improve student’s
language and study skills in order to pass university entrance exams.

provide a highly competitive program that aims to improve all elements
of academic English. Over the course of several months, students will
submit regular essays and assignments online, as well as consult with
other students via the online EPOP forum. Qualified teachers also act
as support staff throughout the process, mentoring small groups of
students to achieve their desired results. Upon completion of the
program, EPOP also provides links to other organizations, where
further information regarding scholarships and funding can be
