PWC as a scholarship provider
PWC as a scholarship provider
As a scholarship provider, PWC helps to make it easier for talented people to access higher education and professional opportunities. Young people from economically disadvantaged families or from culturally disadvantaged backgrounds in particular often do not have the same opportunities as their peers. By awarding scholarships, we give these talented people a fair chance.
As a scholarship provider, we position ourselves as an attractive employer at an early stage and thus have the opportunity to identify top talent.
Young talents face the same challenges as many other people in training, further education, apprenticeships or studies, because limited financial opportunities often require a part-time job in order to finance their training or studies.
PWC positions itself as a responsible, committed company and gives young talent a chance as a sponsor.
Promoting young talent & positive social influence.
By awarding scholarships to talented people, we help them to reach their full potential and make their contribution to society. In this way, they have a direct and positive influence on the future of our society.
PWC invests in the development of the next generation and thus in the future.
Together for a better World
