Can someone with a background in Chemical Engineering apply for the Master's scholarship, or is it strictly for Mechanical and Electrical?

Hi Jessica, the program requires a comprehensive understanding of fields related to mechanical and electrical engineering. If your research topic bridges into mechatronics, energy systems, or materials used in electrical/mechanical systems, you can still reach out to a supervisor at KUAS before applying.
