Dubai [UAE], July 21 (ANI/WAM): Dubai Municipality opened registrations for the ‘Future Talents’ scholarship programme, which aims to welcome and guide UAE national university students majoring in various scientific disciplines that are highly coveted in the job market.

Through this programme, we hope to attract talented Emirati students, develop their abilities, broaden their scientific knowledge, offer them practical experience, and equip them with the tools necessary to tackle the challenges of the future. These initiatives further complement our commitment to the advancement of our workforce and expansion of specialised careers across Dubai Municipality's fields of work."
The disciplines highlighted in the programme support the municipality's employment fields and will help boost employment levels in those sectors, thereby strengthening its workforce sustainability.
