The “Study and Shine!” scholarships were awarded at the Faculty of Architecture’s traditional Long Table Party on December 19, 2025.
The aim of the scholarship for a master level student at the Faculty of Architecture of the Estonian Academy of Arts is to support the studies of one successful MA student from each curriculum of the Faculty of Architecture in one year.
“Study and Shine!” was created in the fall of 2024 at the suggestion of the Dean of the Faculty of Architecture, Sille Pihlak.
The scholarships are financed from the development fund of the Faculty of Architecture. The amount of the scholarship awarded to a student in one curriculum is 1,000 euros.
This year 24 master’s students applied: 10 from interior architecture, 5 from urban studies and 9 from architecture and urban planning. The scholarship committee, consisting of the dean and the heads of the curriculums, decided on the recipients of the 2025 “Study and Shine!” scholarships (a €1,000 each) as follows:
- Julia Freudenberg, Architecture and Urban Design
- Liina Pärn, Interior Architecture
- Md Nabid Hasan Shovon, Urban Studies
Congratulations!
