SINGAPORE- Pre-university students with a passion for mathematics, science and engineering can tap a new scholarship from early next year.

Funded by the Ministry of Education to deepen the pool of engineering and technology talent here, it aims to benefit 200 students each year.

During his opening address at the ceremony, Mr Chan said:"Stem education plays a critical role in our schools' curriculum, not only to develop the Stem workforce needed for the economy, but also science-savvy citizens who can apply their understanding into real-life decision making." Students taking International Baccalaureate programmes and those enrolled in the NUS High School of Math and Science are also eligible for scholarships in their final two academic years.

Students can also gain a deeper understanding of the Stem industry through internships with engineering and technology companies in the public or private sector.
