Named and established in honour of the firm’s greatly missed former Singapore Office Head, The Mei Lin Goh Study Abroad Scholarship was established with the University of Nottingham, where Mei was a School of Law alumna. Law students who meet the university’s participation criteria are supported via the scholarship to spend their third year studying at the National University of Singapore.
Each year we provide financial contribution to support one student on the course, covering costs and living expenses such as flights, visas, insurance and accommodations fees. In order to support students’ personal and professional development, we also offer the opportunity for the recipient of the scholarship to carry out work experience and mentoring at either our Singapore or London office.
Since its inception, two students have benefitted from the scholarship, with the third recipient’s scholarship set to coincide with the 2024/25 academic year.
“Through the Mei Lin Goh scholarship I was able to have life-changing experiences in Asia that will continue to benefit me now that I am back in England and allowed me to experience a field of legal practice that I thought was unattainable and intimidating to enter – international commercial law. Owing to my gratitude for the scholarship funding, I will use my experiences to help others gain the confidence needed to take the leap I did and travel half-way across the world to seek adventure and knowledge”.
