Shams wins Global Citizen Scholarship
Media School doctoral student Ahmed Tahsin Shams was one of the three winning students for the Global Citizen Scholarship, presented by the Office of International Services.
Shams received a one-time scholarship of $7,500 for the submission of a three-minute video. In his video, he shares his journey from Bangladesh to Indiana University and how both communities have supported him in his studies from near and far.
“My story flows through many currents, but it’s all the same water,” Shams narrated.
The Global Citizen Scholarship was created in recognition of the outstanding contributions international students make to IU. The awards were presented during International Education Week from Nov. 8-17.
