A pioneering ambitious program of scholarships for young men and women for studies is promoted by the Union of Greek Shipowners through SYN-ENOSIS, the non-profit, social contribution company of the Greek shipbuilders.
“We support the new generation, we support excellence”
Making its mark with the phrase “we support the new generation, we support excellence” UGS implements the scholarship program “UNITED FOR EDUCATION”, for the academic year 2023-2024, and offers for the first time 100 scholarships, for studies in Greece and abroad, in postgraduate programs of pre-doctoral level, full one-year or two-year study.
“As the Union of Greek Shipowners and SYN-ENOSIS, education is at the heart of our actions. The Scholarship Program has been our priority for years. In the face of these young people to whom we award the scholarships of the postgraduate studies of their choice, we recognize the inspirers of their generation, we recognize our positive role models. They are our guides to a hopeful future as a society, as a country”, says Melina Travlou, President of the Union of Greek Shipowners and SYN-ENOSIS.
The Union of Greek Shipowners, through its collective vehicle of social solidarity, SYN-ENOSIS, consistently continues the timeless contribution of Greek shipbuilding to society.
