Design Impact Award

The Victor Ng Design Impact Award is a scholarship established with my alma mater, Carnegie Mellon University, School of Design, in 2018.

The award recognizes work demonstrating a passion for how design can advance social justice, promote equality, and improve the human condition. Each year, the faculty selects the student(s) to receive the award.

As of 2022, the award is endowed to support scholarship in perpetuity.
