Econometrics Honours Memorial Scholarships

The Faculty of Business and Economics established two very prestigious scholarships in memory of the tragic events that took place in October 2002 in the Department Econometrics and Business Statistics and its honours students. A major fundraising campaign was launched by the Econometrics and Business Statistics Department and its alumni, and this, along with contributions from many others, has enabled the faculty to offer two scholarships in perpetuity.
