2012 Hiroshima Scholarship Award Ceremony and Reception
|
The Hiroshima Scholarship Program was established in 1988, and as of 2011 a total of 713 people have received scholarship support.
Last year, thirty privately-funded students studying at universities in Hiroshima City were selected as Hiroshima Scholarship Students.
On July 11 (Wed), the Scholarship Award Ceremony and a reception were held with a total of 46 people in attendance, including the scholarship students, guests (contributors to the Hiroshima Fund for Foreign Students), those from the universities that the students attend and members of the selection committee.
Speeches were made encouraging the scholarship students, and six student representatives spoke of their determination to succeed.
For the students, this was a good opportunity to think about the significance of studying in Hiroshima and the meaning of the scholarship funds that they will receive from the Hiroshima Peace Culture Foundation, and they fully understood the great importance of the Hiroshima Scholarship.
This was also an opportunity for the donators and scholarship students to interact directly, further enhancing the significance of the Hiroshima Scholarship Program.
