By evaluating students for outstanding academic results we show that we believe in them, appreciate their efforts and encourage them to be even more persistent,\u201d<\/em> Vice-Dean for Undergraduate Studies, Assoc. <strong>Prof. Laura Nedzinskien\u0117<\/strong>, noted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So far, only Lithuanian students could apply for scholarships from the John and Ida Valauskas fund. This year it was decided to support not only Lithuanian, but also international students. \u201cOver the decade that students from abroad have been participating in our programmes in the English language, they have become an integral part of our faculty community. At all levels we are striving for maximum integration, so the decision to allow them to compete for the scholarship, has evolved naturally,\u201d added the Vice-Dean.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This year, scholarships of EUR 225 have been awarded to the following students:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Jonas Navalinskas<\/strong> (study programme in Medicine in Lithuanian, 4<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nina Natha Mueller <\/strong>(study programme in Medicine in English, 4<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gabija Vilutyt\u0117<\/strong> (study programme in Medicine in Lithuanian, 5<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nima Ahadpour Bakhtiari <\/strong>(study programme in Medicine in English, 5<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kristijonas Puteikis<\/strong> (study programme in Medicine in Lithuanian, 6<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Alon Vainger <\/strong>(study programme in Medicine in English, 6<sup>th<\/sup> year)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All students of the Faculty of Medicine with excellent study results are able to compete for the scholarship, provided they have not previously received the scholarship from this fund and have completed at least five semesters on the programme. Scholarships are awarded in March every year. The main criterion for awarding the scholarships is the individual academic performance achieved by a student.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last year, the remaining 45,000 euros in the John and Ida Valauskas Foundation was used to form an endowment subfund of the same name within the Vilnius University Foundation. The professional investment strategy of the Vilnius University Foundation will ensure not only the growth of the endowment sub-fund, but also an increase in the value of scholarships in the future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">_<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>More about newly established <a href=\"https:\/\/vuf.lt\/en\/subfondai\/valauskai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sub-fund<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":233303,"template":"","class_list":["post-233306","naujienos","type-naujienos","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Best Students of the VU Faculty of Medicine have been Awarded John and Ida Valauskas Endowment Sub-fund Scholarships - Vilnius University Foundation<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Best Students of the VU Faculty of Medicine have been Awarded John and Ida Valauskas Endowment Sub-fund Scholarships - Vilnius University Foundation\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"At the Council meeting scholarships from the John and Ida Valauskas Endowment Sub-fund were awarded to the strongest students academically of the VU Faculty of Medicine.
