Scholarships and Honorary Awards
The Rector has decided to award the best students with a scholarship, the Rector's list scholarship at the end of each academic year. The awards for the best performers include a financial supplement.
Every spring and autumn, honorary awards are given to the best performing Bachelor students who go on exchange. The exchange awards do not include any financial supplement (aside from the standard travel allowance). As these honours are awarded only to the best performing students, we wish it to be regarded as an honorary scholarship and our hope is that it can be favourably raised in for example employment processes.
Below is a list of those who received an award in May 2024:
