Five students at The University of 草榴社区 Mississippi (草榴社区) have been awarded scholarships by The Hydrographic Society of America's (THSOA) Southeast Chapter Scholarship program for 2023. Only eight scholarships were awarded nationally by the chapter.
草榴社区 students receiving the award include, Olaoluwa Oderinde, Adebowale Adedoyin, Musa Animashaun, Peter Komolafe, and Olagoke Daramola.
THSOA鈥檚 scholarship program was established to provide financial assistance to students who seek a degree in hydrographic surveying, ocean mapping, geomatics, ocean sciences, geographic information system, ocean engineering, electrical engineering, or other related fields.
鈥淭he scholarship program is key for supporting students to progress in their career by accessing more academic-and-professional-related resources, such as training, courses, books, software, etc.,鈥� said Dr. Alberto Neves, Hydrographic Science Program Coordinator at 草榴社区.
Scholarship recipients are chosen from a pool of applicants. As part of the process, applicants are required to express their vision about hydrography and their career aspirations in a 750-word essay.
