This prize, which is worth €10.600, is awarded each year to a promising, internationally oriented student to support their personal and academic development. Jos Kievits, Director of the University Fund Limburg/SWOL and Boudewijn de Heer, European Recruiting & Staffing Leader at SABIC, presented the scholarship to Ms Gao.
This scholarship is a collaboration between the University Fund Limburg (formerly known as SWOL) and SABIC, a manufacturer of petrochemicals. It reflects the efforts of both organizations to help talented students in their career by making a financial contribution. Lei Gao, a student from China, received the scholarship for the academic year 2012-2013 owing to her strong passion for learning, analytical mind and creative thinking.
