I have never received a scholarship award before, so it means a lot and for me, and it is a big deal” said Jason Wells. “The application process has made me reflect on what my goals are upon completion of my trade, and has helped me to see the many doors that can be opened upon certification. As an apprentice I am being supported by a major player in the electrical distribution sector, and my hard work and effort has been recognized by them”.

He is currently a co-op intern with Dr. Murari, works on beta testing of PCB design software and is a Raspberry Pi Hobbyist working on many projects including WatcherPi, PlexMediaPi and GPIOPi. “This scholarship will grant me both the time and financial backing for my education and Engineering extra-curriculars” said Lawrence Chiu. “Education is important to me, and I work hard in school as I know it is the first step towards creating a meaningful and productive Engineering career. I really appreciate being given this opportunity, as every little bit helps to make ends meet in achieving my goals.” This marks the 3rd year for E.B.
