These scholarships are available to all applicants and will be awarded based on a combination of academic and non-academic criteria.
A release from the university quoted SHU President, Oma Sewhdat, as saying, “We are very pleased with the progress we are making in the program and with the level of interest we have been seeing from potential students from all over the globe.”
Sewhdat said “Our students in the class of January 2013 are progressing very well, and have been very happy with the Plastinated Specimens, our teaching model and the e-resources integrated into the program. According to the students, the Anatomy and Histology slides, videos and related materials have been very valuable.”
He said that all lectures are recorded, packaged with presentation slides and notes; and catalogued for easy search and access by students anytime, anywhere, and on various devices, including laptops and smart phones.
