The Africa Centre of Excellence in Coastal Resilience (ACECoR) established under the World Bank Africa Centre of Excellence (ACE) for Development Impact Project and hosted by the Centre for Coastal Management, University of Cape Coast, Ghana, invites suitably qualified national, regional and international applicants into its MPhil and PhD degree programmes.

World Bank ACECoR Scholarship Eligibility.

• Applicants must qualify for admission to masters and doctorate programmes at the University of Cape Coast. All programmes run at ACECoR are hosted in specific academic departments within UCC and have separate application procedures from the scholarship which is provided by the Centre. It is therefore important for prospective applicants to note that application into the programmes is independent of application for the scholarship.
• For the 2020/21 scholarship application process, applicants are not required to apply to the University of Cape Coast before applying for ACECoR scholarships. However, all successful applicants will have to complete the UCC admission process and be admitted to qualify for the award of scholarship.

How to Apply for World Bank ACECoR Scholarship.

To apply to ACECoR for a scholarship, fill the online scholarship application form and upload the required documents. The omission of any of the documents will be deemed an incomplete application and not considered.
