Alex was awarded a scholarship from the British American Foundation of Texas (BAFTX) for his study abroad in Texas

Without the BAFTX Scholarship I wouldn’t have been able to visit Texas and broaden my horizons in the way that I did. 

The best thing about studying abroad was being able to experience the different way of life and work ethic, and being able to visit the Johnson Space Centre in Houston and Brownsville, where the SpaceX South Texas launch site is located.

Studying abroad has enabled me to think bigger and take on challenges I previously thought I wasn't capable of.
