Celebrating our student leaders

Congratulations to our students on receiving the Leadership (Distinction) Awards at NUS Student Life Awards (2022), at a ceremony held on 29 October!

Year 2 Food Science and Technology (FST) student KWOK Jing Lin was recognised for her work as the Project Director of the NUS FoodTech Challenge 2022, organised by the FST Society and NUS Enterprise. Under her leadership, the challenge was open to international participants for the first time. She led her team to organise the event, engage industry experts, judges and mentors, and secure $20,000 in sponsorship funding. Jing Ling is also a recipient of the Singapore Sustainability Scholarship.

As President of the 42nd Management Committee, Year 2 Data Science and Analytics student Richmond SIN  initiated new events such as the Science Valentine’s Day Carnival, which brought together more than 300 Science students, while seeking to bring back traditions that were lost over the past two years during the pandemic. He also  championed improvements to support students, including the installation of a ramp for wheelchair users at LT27. Under his leadership, his team also gave back to the community through various initiatives, such as the Loving Enriching Giving Outreach (L.E.G.O) Week, STEPUP! Challenge and the Old Items Collection.
