“Thank you very much indeed for interacting with the final year bursary students and graduates of this bursary program.
You connect so well with young people, but you don’t just entertain them – you also challenge them and ask thought-provoking questions, which should engage their minds even for some time after the Retreat.
Thanks for supporting us in our endeavour to prepare these science and engineering students for the workplace and to start building their future careers.” The National Science & Technology Forum
