The representatives of Mahvash and Jahangir Siddiqui Foundation (M&JS Foundation) and Sajjad Foundation met and handed over tickets to the students who were selected from universities all over Pakistan, to attend a Summer Program at the National University of Singapore (NUS).
Mr. Ali J. Siddiqui, Director, M&JS Foundation, met the students in an informal meeting, which prepared them to be the ambassadors of not only their universities, but more importantly of Pakistan and our business environment and culture.
The students will be attending a summer program at the National University of Singapore (NUS) from 13 to 24 July 2009. This program will host undergraduate students from universities in various parts of the world.
The program is an excellent opportunity for participants to learn about Singapore: how the smallest nation in Southeast Asia has progressed into a modern city-state and has grown into a thriving centre of commerce and industry. Participants will also get to experience the culture, interact with locals, understand how public policies are formulated, and gain insights on business practices in Singapore.
M&JS Foundation and Sajjad Foundation are sponsoring the entire cost of the Pakistani students at this program.
This program is a part of M&JS Foundation and Sajjad Foundation’s continuous investments into various education initiatives in Pakistan.
The participating students are from Institute of Business Administration (IBA), Institute of Business Management (IoBM), Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Institute of Science and Technology (SZABIST), NED University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology (GIKI) and University of Peshawar (UoP).
