Henry Schein Awards and Scholarships
Congratulations to four Distance Learning students, recipients of the Henry Schein Hardship Award and the Henry Schein Leadership Scholarship.
The Henry Schein Hardship Fund of $10,000 USD per annum was established to support students who have successfully completed part of the programme, but are now experiencing financial hardship that is impacting on their ability to complete the programme for financial reasons.
The Henry Schein Leadership Scholarship of $10,000 USD per annum aims to support continuing educational development by recognising emerging leaders in the field of dentistry. Recipients will have demonstrated their leadership goals and how these are facilitated by undertaking postgraduate education within King’s.
Aline Bresseleers, a Belgium based Year 2 student studying on the MSc Aesthetic Dentistry Programme was chosen as a winner of one of the Leadership Scholarships.
“I am absolutely thrilled to be awarded the Henry Schein Leadership scholarship. It is great that Henry Schein acknowledges the efforts of distance learning students to combine studying for a masters degree and working full time. I feel honoured that my decision to start a MSc in Aesthetic Dentistry while also starting my own practice are rewarded by Henry Schein. It is a leg-up for my future and ensures that I can enjoy the last part of my MSc education while fulfilling my other professional dreams and cherishing the beautiful friendships that were built during this Masters course” she explains.
