Selection Criteria

While the academic excellence is of prime consideration, the Review Panels will take into account, but not limit to, the four yardsticks below for the selection of candidates:

  • Academic excellence;
  • Research ability and potential;
  • Communication, and interpersonal skills; and
  • Leadership abilities.

To facilitate the assessment of applicants' communication and interpersonal skills, interviews may be conducted with the nominated applicants.
