Awards and Scholarships
- The Pharmaceutical Student Union’s Study Council Award for Student Treatment, Pharmaceutical Student Union (2021)
During the spring semester of 2020, courses were taught remotely when COVID-19 began to spread in Sweden. Students experienced difficulties with remote work. Viktor approached and understood the students, brought forward their opinions to the ones responsible and stayed after hours to help the students that needed extra help with their individual projects. Thanks to Viktor’s admirable approach, the upcoming courses could be optimized for students.
