Can anyone recommend a good article on writing scholarship essays? I have to write one with a personal statement and a brief research proposal.

hmm... maybe u could write something on "how to foster better synergy between the academics and industry? a strategic approach to collaborative innovation!"

why?
because the synergy between the faculty and industry is a highly intriguing topic to both parties. with the advent of more researches, it is getting more and more difficult to get funding on a continuous basis.

as such, some people are predicting that in the near future, getting research grants from the government would no longer be a promising alternative. instead, there should be a close collaboration between academics and industry to sustain the viability of research.

all the best to u tashinga :)

Thanks Pikirkool- great suggestion and v relevent to my industry :)
