A group of Filipino-American engineers recently turned over a one-time scholarship grant to six intelligent but poor Filipino students who are taking up engineering courses from selected colleges and universities in the Philippines. Together with the Ayala Foundation USA, the Association of Filipino-American Engineers in Washington (AFEW) selected this year’s scholars who received the grant that helped augment their expenses while doing thesis or research projects as requirement for graduation.
The scholars were Tristan Jed Roque, BS Computer Science student from the University of the Philippines Diliman; Rizalino de Guia Panganiban, a BS Electronics and Communications Engineering student from FEATI University; Emenar Ramento, a BS Electrical Engineering student at the University of Santo Tomas; Jerome Famadico taking up BS Civil Engineering from Adamson University; Jody Ann Lunasin, BS Electronics and Communications Engineering at the Mapua Institute of Technology and John Collantes, BS Electrical Engineering at the Manuel L. Quezon University. (ayalafoundation.org)
