USJ held its 2021/2022 USJ Community Scholarships and Fellowships Award Presentation on the 15th, 16th, and 17th of February, 2022.
The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) held its 2021/2022 USJ Community Scholarships and Fellowships Award Presentation on the 15th, 16th, and 17th of February 2022, at Kent Wong Exhibition Gallery in Ilha Verde Campus. This year, the award presentation was divided into various sessions throughout three days as a preventive measure to accommodate the high number of guests and participants within the current pandemic situation. Nevertheless, the event provided a precious opportunity for the student recipients to express their gratitude to each donor in person. The donors also learned about the updates and needs of the students, along with the latest developments of USJ.
A total of 108 scholarships, admissions scholarships, and fellowships exceeding MOP 3,300,000 were donated to support USJ students.
This year, Mr. Lucas Lo has generously set up the “Lucas Lo Scholarships for the University of Saint Joseph”. The fund will support twelve students’ undergraduate studies for up to four years. Bank of China Macau Branch also offers four scholarships to new Master’s degree students to study at USJ.
USJ representatives Prof. Álvaro Barbosa, Vice-Rector for Internationalisation and Strategic Development, and Dr. Alejandro Salcedo, Administrator, presented a souvenir to each donor to acknowledge their generosity and support who have contributed to USJ’s mission of cultivating talents for the future of Macao.
