Woodside Scholarship profile: Robert Sambo
Robert Sambo is a Torres Strait Islander student from Karratha, Western Australia who graduated from Wesley College (2014).
In 2015, Robert decided to take a gap year where he travelled to the U.S.A to run a program for Camp America and continued to travel for the remainder of the year. Upon his return, Woodside offered Robert a traineeship which saw him develop an interest in computer technology and analysis. After spending two years with Woodside, a friend who participated in the Graduate Program at Woodside convinced him to study Computer Science at The University of Western Australia (UWA) – which he decided to pursue.
Robert is now a recipient of a Woodside Scholarship living at St Catherine's College (a valued member of the Dandjoo Darbalung Program) whilst completing his Computer Science undergraduate at UWA.
Robert recognises the support and opportunities that Woodside has given him and hopes he can contribute to the company in the future.
