Thirty-three students graduated from the Art Williams and Harry Wendt Aeronautical Engineering School (AW&HWAES) at the institute’s 21st graduation ceremony on Tuesday.
The ceremony was held at the National Cultural Centre on Homestretch Avenue.
Christopher Halley, 21, of South Ruimveldt, was named the best graduating student of 2019. Halley, who graduated with six distinctions, said that his success was well-deserved because he worked “very hard” to be where he is presently. He revealed that he worked two jobs, one during the day and one during the night, to pay for the course but managed to balance time between studying and working. He acknowledged that his success would not have been possible if it weren’t for his parents emotional and financial support.
