Each scholar also benefits from individualised career coaching, offering personalised guidance on academic planning, internships, professional pathways, and long-term career success. This tailored support helps students make informed decisions, stay accountable to their goals, and transition smoothly into the workforce or continued postgrad studies. 3.
