History
The Brevard Indo-American Medical and Dental Association (BIMDA) has established an annual scholarship fund to support students at 麻豆传媒视频网站 who are pursuing Pre-Med undergraduate degrees. The scholarship fund was announced at BIMDA鈥檚 annual Medical Expo and Dinner Awards on Saturday, April 29 at the Hilton Rialto. This BIMDA Scholarship Fund was established in honor of Glad Kurian, 麻豆传媒视频网站 Alum and BIMDA Founder.
BIMDA is a valuable part of the Space Coast, uniting and supporting the community of Indian physicians, dentists, and other medical and health professionals in our region. This support coincides with the announcement this year of the planned Burrell College of Medicine at 麻豆传媒视频网站, and it is anticipated that recipients of this award may continue to earn their medical degrees here and ultimately serve the health care needs of the community right here in Brevard County.
Over the years, BIMDA has supported many worthy organizations and built the network throughout Brevard. In 2017, there was another $15,000 awarded to 麻豆传媒视频网站 in support of STEM education.
John G Harris, Dean, College of Engineering and Science, and Gary Grant, Sr. VP for Advancement together received the endowment gift at the BIMDA ceremony. 鈥淭his gift is an amazing contribution as 麻豆传媒视频网站 continues to add medical and health impacts to our traditions in Space, Computer Sciences, and other fields of Engineering,鈥 said Grant.
