Thea Parnamae Rural Pharmacy Bursary
Monash University
The scholarship is named in honour of Thea Parnamae, a pharmacist in Sweden who was born in rural Estonia in January 1927 and fled to Sweden in 1944 as a refugee of World War II. Upon completion of her secondary school studies, Thea elected to enrol in pharmacy college because she considered a career as a pharmacist to be promising both in terms of personal and societal benefits. Thea was proud of being identified as a dedicated pharmacist and did prove to reap the benefits of her career as expected. Thea died in Stockholm, Sweden in November 2010.
