Outstanding Master of Applied Science students at the Norman B. Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering at UBC Vancouver may be considered for the Samit and Reshma Sharma Graduate Scholarship in Mining Engineering. Preference goes to students with interest and expertise in the environmental impacts of mining and/or corporate social responsibility.

Scholarships totalling $3,500 are available through an endowment established by the Samit and Reshma Sharma Foundation.
