It was a great 2018-19 academic year for our SAGE scholars! Five scholars completed their studies at the University of Guyana and will graduate this November. We are so proud of their accomplishments!
SAGE 2019 graduates:
What has been the best part of your university experience?
"Meeting new people, making new friends and developing a discipline for Computer Science...When I became an upper-class student, I was able to help and encourage younger students when needed. I am grateful for those opportunities." -Kerrie
"The feeling of accomplishment and pride when seeing days and nights of effort come to life is quite remarkable. Meeting new friends and making new connections within my field was also important for my future." -Andy
What goals do you have for your future?
"To become the best person I can be." -Gina
"In short, I am aiming to become the best version of myself. I would like to pursue a career in which I get to help people through the use of technology and artificial intelligence...I want to give back as much as possible to my community and especially to all those persons who helped me along my journeys." -Kerrie
"The overall aim is to go through life doing something I love and leave a positive impact along the way." -Andy
