As of date, REPSOL Malaysia has disbursed scholarships amounting to more than RM4 million since the inception of the scholarship award programme. A total of 118 students pursuing Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Universiti Malaya (UM), Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) and Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) have benefitted from the award.
REPSOL Malaysia also fortified the programme by signing a new Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) to mark its third cycle to further include a new partner university – Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT).
REPSOL Malaysia’s Director of Business Unit, Jorge Milathianakis, who spoke at the press conference said that “This scholarship programme started a decade ago with a vision as education is one of the core pillars of REPSOL’s Corporate Responsibility. Acknowledging the importance of Science and Technology education or better known as STEM, our company will continue to make an effort to grow our own talent and nurture interest in these subjects through such scholarships. REPSOL takes on the challenge of reinventing the future of energy every single day, and our Digitalization Transformation program is the cornerstone of this change. We want to be more agile, more efficient, and to respond better to new scenarios, technologies and ways of working.”
He further elaborated that, “Such collaboration is essential to set the right expectations for both; the industry and the institutions. I hope that through such partnerships with REPSOL, we can look forward to a future where we can take onboard fresh graduates from Malaysian academic institutions with much confidence that they will be the right resource to help us operate successfully and become our human capital and asset.”
