Faculty Prizes & Scholarships

                                                   

Prizes and scholarships offer valuable opportunities to recognize and reward academic excellence.

Prizes are awarded based on outstanding academic performance and typically do not require an application. While they are usually of lesser monetary value than scholarships, they serve as important acknowledgments of student achievement.

Scholarships, on the other hand, must be applied for at the start of the academic year and generally offer greater financial support.
