Ajit Divakaruni - Undergraduate Senior, Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics
 For the first time since 1997, the UA has a recipient of the Marshall Scholarship, a prestigious national award that provides recipients with full funding of $60,000 for two or three years of graduate study in the United Kingdom. Scholarship winner Ajit Divakaruni, a senior majoring in biochemistry, mathematics, and molecular and cellular biology, said he will use the funding to pursue a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Cambridge University.
He is working toward three degrees, all at the baccalaureate level with honors, in the departments of Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics, Mathematics, and Molecular & Cellular Biology. He has maintained a perfect 4.0 grade point average throughout this exceptionally difficult course of study involving multiple honors courses in all three departments. Ajit as an excellent student. He is in fact the kind of student that one sees perhaps 2 or 3 times in an entire career.
