Alison - UC Electrical & Electronic Engineering student
"Receiving the Aruhiko Power Engineering Excellence Trust (PEET) Undergraduate Scholarship was a defining part of my time at university. As a woman in Electrical Engineering, it gave me the confidence to pursue a career in the power industry, which might have otherwise felt daunting. The scholarship opened doors to many invaluable opportunities, including field trips that provided real-world insights into the challenges facing the power industry, mentoring from older students that helped me navigate courses and internships, and networking with industry professionals. Beyond the financial support, it reinforced my passion for power systems and sustainable energy.
I am deeply grateful to Aruhiko PEET for their support and encouragement, which has significantly enriched my educational experience and professional aspirations. I encourage anyone considering applying to go for it—it’s an opportunity that can shape both your studies and your future career."
