The Alice Edwin English Prize and The Martin Engelbrecht Economics Prize are given annually in honor of beloved educators who taught at KIS in the 1970s and 80s.
These prizes will be awarded annually to the top students in the English and Economics departments. They are not cash prizes, but the students will be awarded a certificate of excellence. The donations will be used to fund specific needs that benefit the English and Economics departments at KIS. This may include funding speakers on campus, sponsoring teachers or students’ trips to seminars and conferences, purchasing teaching resources and other activities to support the student and faculty programs in the English and Economics departments.
The Prizes are open to all KIS students. Following historical norms, the English and Economics Prize recipients will be selected by an academic Awards committee led by the Vice-Principal of KIS.
