Nicosia, Cyprus. Island Oil will contribute towards a scholarship for a newly admitted University of Cyprus student joining the MA in Peace, Conflict and Democracy for the 2026/2027 academic year. The scholarship will support a student accepted into the programme offered by the Department of Social and Political Sciences.
Scholarship support
Island Oil said the contribution extends its cooperation with the University of Cyprus and forms part of its commitment to education and youth development.
The company said education creates opportunities, empowers future leaders and drives meaningful change in society.
“We believe that investing in education means investing in opportunity, social progress, and the values that help shape a stronger future,” Island Oil said.
Master’s programme
The MA in Peace, Conflict and Democracy examines peace, conflict and democratic transformation through an interdisciplinary approach.
The 18-month programme carries 90 ECTS and combines academic study with research and practical skills.
Previous cooperation
Island Oil said supporting initiatives that promote academic excellence, peace and democratic values is among the ways it seeks to contribute to the community.
According to the company’s sustainability report, the group awarded a full scholarship for the then-new master’s degree in 2022.
“We value our collaboration with the University of Cyprus and the Department of Social and Political Science, and we look forward to continuing this meaningful partnership,” Island Oil said.
