A total of 60 MaritimeONE Scholarships was awarded by sponsors from the maritime industry, unions, associations and foundations at the MaritimeONE Scholarship Award Ceremony 2025 held on 12 September 2025 by the Singapore Maritime Foundation (SMF). Mr. Baey Yam Keng, Minister of State, Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth & Ministry of Transport, was the Guest-of-Honour.
Beyond academic pursuits, MaritimeONE scholars enjoy a holistic immersion programme which ranges from internship opportunities to participation in industry networking events and career workshops, to mentorship by maritime professionals, and more. They also learn the value of giving back through SMF’s partnership with community organisations.
Lim Jia Huey Sally, a recipient of the Norden & Orient Ford – MaritimeONE Scholarship 2025 and currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Maritime Studies at NTU, shared, “I was drawn to maritime by its critical role in global trade and its ongoing commitment to transformation, hence inspiring my transition from aviation to help navigate its future. Being awarded the MaritimeONE scholarship has welcomed me into the industry, and I am excited to begin my career, working to bridge my experience into optimising operations and driving decarbonisation for a more resilient and innovative future in maritime.”
Among the awardees, 26 are students from NTU’s School of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) pursuing the Maritime Studies programme.
