Alumni Testimonials
"I feel indebted that I have an opportunity to interact with the world’s leading professors and scientists. I believe World Science Scholars is not just a one-year program... it's a lifelong one."
"Many [scholars] still chat online... and some have even organized casual meet-ups. We know of one in-person gathering in South Africa, another in India, two at Harvard, and most recently a virtual one with ten scholars. That’s five meet-ups from just one cohort in a year!"
"World Science Scholars is my second home. If there is one thing that [has had] the biggest impact on me and my scientific career... it has to be World Science Festival."
"Throughout a variety of courses with focus in different areas of science, l've learnt a lot and reassured my love for physics and mathematics. It's also an amazing opportunity to meet great professors and other students that share the same interests."
"It's just incredible to be able to meet scientists with such ability to communicate their passion to us and for us to really undertake real-life projects with them."
