Archives: Bursary Awards

This academic year, the NUS Economics Alumni awarded its first bursary recipients under the newly created Economics Alumni Endowed Bursary. The Endowed Bursary was made possible by over $250,000 in donations from alumni, faculty and friends, together with matching grants from government. Along with funds from the existing (non-endowed) bursary, we have been able to give out seven awards worth $3,000 each this year.

This also marks the first year In which we are giving out bursaries named according to the wishes of donors who have contributed $25,000 and above.

The following students have been awarded bursaries by the Bursary Committee.

Mr Bradley Ho, Ms See Hui Ngoh and Ms Susana Yap are the 2016/17 recipients of the NUS Economics Alumni Bursary. They will each receive $3,000 for each of the next three years of their study at NUS to help defray tuition cost. The Bursary is awarded to selected Economics majoring students in need of financial assistance.

The NUS Economics Alumni Committee is also proud to announce that we have launched the NUS Economics Alumni Endowed Bursary. With $250,000 in donations collected from generous alumni and friends, and matching funding from the Government, the Endowed Bursary will begin paying out awards in AY2017/18.
