"The biggest thing the scholarship has awarded me with is time. Time that I can take off work and devote towards my studies, which I've seen a clear reflection in my grades of how that has benefited me."

"My passion has always been science, discovery and ultimately helping others. I care deeply about helping people in the community during what may be crucial times in their lives and want to be able to make a difference."

“Events like the Welding Gala create real opportunities. When students connect with alumni, staff and industry partners who see their potential, it boosts their confidence and inspires them to aim higher. At the Welding Gala, you can feel the excitement in the room, knowing doors are opening for the future.”
