Two students
have been awarded Education for Peace
Scholarships to pursue their undergraduate
studies at Northwestern Polytechnic
University in Fremont, California, starting
this Winter 2011 session.
The 2010 EFP
winners are Mr. Dren Qerimi and Mr. Bajram
Hoxha. Both of them are not only excellent
students in terms of their academic
performance, but they are also excellent
members of their communities and excellent
volunteers. They have a passion for
technology and both will be studying
computer science.
Dren was born
and raised in Gjilan, Kosovo and was one of
the top graduating students of his high
school class. He earned several honorable
mentions, certificates of appreciation, and
other prizes in a variety of competitions,
academic quizzes, etc.
Bajram was born
and raised in Ferizaj, Kosovo and also
graduated with a remarkable academic record
from his high school. His passion for
computers knows no limits. Despite his young
age, he has helped establish several formal
and informal computer scientist groups and
has worked for computer and software
engineering firms already. His programming
skills are quite impressive.
Both Dren and
Bajram are our foundation's 2010 EFP
scholarship winners, thanks to the generous
support of NPU.
