FOUR students studying I.T. and Engineering courses at North West Regional College (NWRC) have been presented with scholarship awards by the US Navy Alumni Association.

The presentation of the awards, which took place virtually this year, marks the fourteenth anniversary of the Association’s Educational Scholarship Award programme with the college.

The recipients of the Naval Communications Station Scholarship are: Engineering student Rory Mullan, and Darragh McLaughlin, Eimear Barber, and Ben Ferguson who are all studying I.T.

Danny Lyttle, Students Events and Liaison Officer at NWRC said: “The Navcommsta Alumni Association very kindly awards £1000 annually to be shared among students at the college.

“These scholarships will support current study at the College for our students and should provide incentives for progression onto higher education opportunities.

“We would like to sincerely thank the U.S. Navcommsta Association for its association with our College over the past 14 years, which continues to support widening access and participation.”

During the online presentation ceremony, the students were joined virtually by the Navcommsta Alumni Association president Dennis Kolodziej.

The Association was founded in the summer of 2000, for the purpose of reuniting those sailors and civilians, and their families, who served at the U.S. Naval Communication Station in Derry~Londonderry, during its years of operation, 1942 through 1977.
