Harmony Gold Bursary 2022

Harmony Gold nurtures talent to meet the labor demand in the gold mining industry. Every year, it selects a certain number of unprivileged students for the Harmony Gold Bursary.

For the academic year 2022, Harmony will offer bursaries to both core and non-core mining disciplines.

The core mining disciplines include:

• Mechanical Engineering
• Rock Engineering
• Mining Engineering
• Electrical Engineering (only Heavy Current)
• Extractive Metallurgy
• Geology
• Survey

The non-core mining disciplines for the bursary are:

• Psychology
• Dentistry
• Botany

Students selected for the bursary will receive benefits like full tuition fees coverage, accommodation fees coverage, and prescribed books cost. Along with that, bursars will also receive a personal allowance depending on their needs.

For the bursary, the applicants must demonstrate a strong motivation for pursuing a career in mining. They should also have the drive to flourish in the field.

The selection process also involves a series of interview and psychometric assessments. The results from these will contribute to the final selection.

Bursary Eligibility Criteria

To select candidates for the bursary, Harmony Gold has laid out specific eligibility criteria. Everyone must fulfill the requirements before they’re allowed to move further in the selection process. Since the mining company receives thousands of applicants, it rejects those who do not meet all criteria.

The eligibility requirements for the Harmony Gold Bursary 2022 are:

• Must be a South African citizen
• Must have completed Matric and hold a National Senior Certificate
• Must have achieved a minimum of 60% in all subjects in Matric
• Must be pursuing a full-time degree in one of the aforementioned fields of study at a recognized tertiary institute

Fulfilling all the criteria, however, does not guarantee that you’ll be awarded. The bursaries are limited in number, and preference will be given to students coming from disadvantaged backgrounds, dependents of Harmony employees, and students from Harmony host communities.

The candidates selected by Harmony Gold will be considered final.
