SMU alumnus and National Infocomm Scholar Danny Seow shared how he enjoyed the best of both worlds with the scholarship. Having experienced local undergraduate education at SMU and graduating with the highest honours, he went on to Carnegie Mellon University for his master’s education. Now a consultant at Accenture, he advised prospective scholars to be aware of the accompanying obligations of the scholarship: “Potential scholars must be aware of their job role in future, passionate about their company’s direction, comfortable with the employee benefits and most importantly, confident they can excel before committing to a bond.”
