MasterCard-U21Global Scholarship Programme
MasterCard Worldwide and U21Global announced the third year of the MasterCard-U21Global scholarship programme for women in the travel and tourism industry. The programme was launched in 2006 to empower women executives through education to realise their full potential. The programme is intended for graduates who want to develop skills in the management and marketing of tourism and travel products and programmes. It is designed to provide participants with a solid foundation in core management subjects, and is aimed at providing students with a firm grounding in basic management capabilities. Core subjects include organisational behaviour, finance, marketing management and strategic management.
Organisations from the travel and tourism industry across Asia/Pacific, South Asia, South Africa, Saudi Arabia and UAE are invited to nominate female employees who they believe will most benefit from the learning and exposure offered by such a scholarship. MasterCard and U21Global will institute a distinguished panel of judges to choose the 20 worthy recipients.
