Project narrative
In 2019, Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou provided 20 undergraduate scholarships to Brunei students. Two of the recipients were awarded the scholarship at a ceremony on August 20, 2019. At that same ceremony, five students received Chinese government scholarships (see Record ID#89135). These scholarships allow for tuition fees of recipients to be deducted from subsidy amounts along with living expenses and insurance fees. Students are responsible for visa fees, round-trip air tickets and medical examination fees. Science and engineering majors received RMB 63,800/person/academic year (including tuition fee of RMB 33,800/year). Medical major received RMB 78,000/person/academic year (including tuition fee of RMB 48,000/person). Arts/economics and management majors received RMB 56,000/person/academic year (including tuition fee of RMB 26,000 /person/academic year and living expenses of RMB 30,000/person/academic year). It is unclear which majors the recipients were planning on pursuing, how much money they were receiving, and if there were other scholarship recipients as well. This project is linked to Record ID#49476 which captures a batch of 10 scholarships in 2017 from Sun Yat-sen University to Bruneian students.
