The School of Economics is proud to announce that two of last year’s Honours students, Armand Lourens and Andries Lombaard, have received scholarships and are going to further their studies abroad.

Armand and Andries have won Erasmus Mundus scholarships. Armand will be using his scholarship to study in the Economics Department of the University of Paris 1 – Panthéon Sorbonne from September.

Andries, who is currently busy with a Master’s degree at UCT, also won a Fulbright scholarship and will be going to Fordham Univeristy in New York City for the MA in International Political Economics and Development. He also sent us this message.

Congratulations guys, the hard work and dedication has paid off. Best of luck with your studies abroad.
