Merit scholarships were presented to 29 Engineering and Computer Science students at a ceremony on Nov. 8 at the Centre Mont-Royal. At right are the winners, so far, of one of the major scholarships, the Normand Hébert Award: from the left, Neil Carter, the first winner, Nicholas Zacchia, last year’s winner, Dean Nabil Esmail and Percival Graham, this year’s winner. The Hébert Award pays recipients $28,000 over the four-year program.
At the evening event, Dean’s Excellence Awards were also presented to the 178 students on the Dean’s List for 2005-06. Making the list means having an annual grade point average of 3.75 or more.
The students received prizes that ranged from an engraved gift up to $1,000. Like those on the Arts and Science Dean’s List earlier this month, the students and their families also had the pleasure of seeing their names published in a full-page advertisement in Montreal newspapers.
