Our Students
Our University students were most often the first in their families to leave the village and travel to the capital Phnom Penh to further their education. It was daunting and challenging for them to be away from their families and to become comfortable with the pressures of university life in a busy city which most had never visited before.
Many of our students received scholarships from us to study their Degree of choice, as without that support further education would have remained just a dream for them.
Our University Scholarship Program has seen 65 students financially supported by us to attend university. Every one of their stories is heartwarming and a reiteration to us of the contribution that further education provides to communities and society.
We are so proud of all our TCEC graduates who now practice their professions in a diverse range of environments. They have achieved so much from their early days at TCEC, and can be found making major contributions to Khmer society:
As an Architect working on building design in the Phnom Penh
Practicing dentistry in a self run dental clinic in the capital
Teaching in International Institutes and NGOs
In the legal field at the Cambodian Police Force
Working as a Laboratory Technician in the Virology Unit at the Pasteur Institute in Phnom Penh
As National respected artists in the fields of painting and portraiture
