Maybank Islamic Berhad Awards Postgraduate Sponsorship Programme To Three Recipients

KUALA LUMPUR: Maybank Islamic Berhad (MIB) recently presented certificates of sponsorships to three students who secured the Bank’s postgraduate sponsorship programme for 2019 at its main office in Kuala Lumpur on Tuesday (Oct 22).

The programme is part of part of MIB’s thought leadership agenda under its Centre of Excellence initiative with the objective of contributing to the human capital need for Islamic finance experts in the country and globally.

The three students are Anas Ahmad Abu Jaish, a Syrian currently pursuing his PhD at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Najim Nur Fauziah from Indonesia who is doing her Master of Science in Islamic Banking and Finance at IIUM and Malaysian Noor A’in Murad, a Masters student at the International Centre for Education in Islamic Finance (INCEIF).

This programme is unique as it does not require the sponsored students to be bonded to the bank as per MIB’s previous scholarship award.
