With the shared goal of empowering young emerging scientists as future innovators and nation builders, GBF continued its partnership with DOST by supporting the annual competition for students’ innovation in STEM. Open to all senior high school students nationwide, this research and innovation competition aims to promote a culture of STEM among students and encourage them to pursue careers in STEM fields.
GBF has been a staunch supporter of DOST programs for students, believing that strengthening STEM education in the country is the way to move forward towards economic progress and nation building.
Three winners were selected by GBF this year for the Young Scientist Awards who will be provided with “STEM Excellence Scholarship”:
