Best thing about KGSP:
The KGSP suits my personality and feeds my intellectual curiosity in different fields.
Why science matters for Saudi:
Efforts are being made in Saudi Arabia to create a competitive, global economy. At a global level, STEM-based careers are occupying a higher percentage of the job market than ever before, and this percentage will almost certainly grow over the coming years.
Best experience so far / How KGSP helped me:
I joined KGSP almost 4 months ago. I am sure that I still have a lot of great experiences and events to look up to. So far, my favorite KGSP experience is when our KGSP advisors visited us on campus. When we gathered that day, I felt a strong deep connection between all of us and I felt that I have a second family here in the US.
