The PSD, in a statement, said the students Nurul Izzati Mohamed, Nurul 'Iffa Nazirah Taini Achim and Nuur Aqilah Izzati Othman are currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Microbiology at the university.
Nurul Izzati and Nurul 'Iffa Nazirah both received the Dietrich C. Bauer Scholarship Award (High Honour Distinction) while Nuur Aqilah Izzati received the Russel Duvall Endowed Scholarship Award (Research).
"A total of eight awards were contested and three awards went to Malaysian students. The awards are based on academic excellence throughout the course and the quality and potential of the study conducted," the statement said.
