The Singapore Police Force Scholarship is a prestigious scholarship awarded by the Public Service Commission (PSC). It is awarded to candidates who have outstanding academic performance and leadership qualities, and are keen to serve in the Singapore Police Force.
The Singapore Police Force Scholarship was previously known as the Singapore Police Force Overseas Scholarship. The change in name of the Scholarship is done in line with the PSC’s review and refinement of the PSC scholarships schemes.
SPF Scholars are sent to institutions in Singapore and all over the world such as those in the United Kingdom and United States for their undergraduate studies. The SPF Scholarship grooms and develops bright and motivated young individuals for leadership positions within and beyond the SPF.
This year, the SPF awarded the Scholarship to Tan Kuan Hian, Long Jun Da, Darrel and Lai Chi Ming Ryan.
Mr Teo Chee Hean, Deputy Prime Minister, Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs, presented The SPF Scholarship to the three receipients at an award ceremony at the Istana on 12 August 2015. Kuan Hian, Darrel Long and Ryan Lai will undergo training at the SPF Training Command after they complete their studies. They will then be posted to the land divisions to assume investigation and command appointments.
