    I’m a Cameroonian by nationality. With a B.Sc degree in social work, with much experience serving as a volunteer staff with Social Welfare Center in my country Cameroon, later as a full employee with the Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Service CBCHS in my country Cameroon.

    As of now, I’m in the UAE Dubai, as a refugee without status, running from an ongoing political instability in my country Cameroon which started in 2016.

    Can I be eligible for any fully funded study program out there.

    We have recently done a final year project “stability study of flexible pavement using PET bottles” and the result was amazing about the use of plastic bottles and we perform 12 tests using different ratios of plastic bottles in conventional as well as in modified asphalts. I can share the thesis if you may take interest in our project please email on Burhanuddin3334@gmail.com
