The graduates who have obtained the scholarships are Biochemistry graduates Natalia Isabel Torrea and Patricia Montilla; Beatriz Cadenas, Óscar Palacio and José Ignacio Mira, biologists; and chemist Iosu Estremera.

According to the counselor of Economics, Álvaro Miranda, the regional government plans to repeat these aids next year. Likewise, the leader warned that this year the budget destined to this item was not exhausted, for which there were more aids than those granted.
