Scholar Spotlight: Meet Mia Costa, a maths-loving student at St Albans Secondary College. Mathematics has always been a subject that she could rely on to challenge her understanding and expand her knowledge. In the future, Mia hopes to pursue a career in engineering. "At first glance, maths is just numbers and symbols placed side-by-side, but with deeper consideration, you begin to realise that it fosters an effective problem-solving, resilient mindset that is not only used within the subject, but in everyday life, and is why I hold mathematics in such high regard. With this invaluable advantage provided by the Yuille-Umbers Scholarship, I plan to make the most of every program and mentorship offered. I know that, with the abundance of resources and opportunities presented, this scholarship will encourage me to reach my highest potential and achieve my future aspirations."
