degree at KAUST. The award has been granted in recognition of your outstanding
academic achievements, your talent, and your potential to make significant contributions
to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the region and the world in the areas of
science and engineering.
Congratulations once again on your academic successes. I am confident KGSP will mark the start of an exciting journey toward fulfilling your scientific and professional ambitions.

Director, KAUST Gifted Student Program & Scholarships
King Abdullah University of Science & Technology "
The KGSP Scholarship was launched in August 2008. Through this program, exceptional Saudi
secondary school graduates are hand picked by KAUST from the top 2% of their
graduating classes and placed into selective English Language or Foundation
Year programs in the United States or the United Kingdom. This scholarship supports male and female Saudi
secondary school graduates beyond their Foundation Year and through their
undergraduate study in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and
math. Upon completion of their
undergraduate degree, KGSP students will apply to KAUST for their master's
degree.
In addition to their academic studies, students participate
in community service, cultural engagement, and leadership development
activities. This combination of exceptional
academic performance and extracurricular activities is designed to assist
students in developing leadership skills and a sense of civic responsibility,
as well as deepening their understanding of different aspects of cutting-edge science
and technology. KGSP students are also
often engaged in academic programs during the summer including KAUST
facilitated research opportunities at universities or research institutes.
