"3 Bonds, 5 Virtues in the Arts and Sciences" Scholarship Program for Youth This is a privately-funded Scholarship Program for International and Multicultural Youth in the Arts and Sciences. Intelligence Renaissance Industries (IRI), in collaboration with TETRAD Institute of Complex System Dynamics and M Dudziak & Company, are the co-originators and co-developers of this unique and first-of-kind Program which makes annual awards to four young students in different countries around the world. IRI and TETRAD Institute are the joint administrative and fiduciary coordinators of this Program. Each year, commencing in 2022, Mirnova Foundation will make financial-honorarium awards to four or more individuals in different geocultural regions of the world, for specific use in studies and projects within science, technology, engineering, mathematics and/or the arts. Details about the procedures and methods are described in Scholarship Invitational Award Process
Summary:
The Awards Committee membership remains anonymous in order to preserve objectivity and to minimize situations of solicitation or conflict of interest. This Committee includes individuals with no formal or fiduciary association with MirnovaFoundation nor with TETRAD Instritute or Intelligence Renaissance Industries.
Student interests, accomplishments, and award-supported projects may be in a very wide variety of disciplines and topics, within those fields generally understood to be "arts" and "sciences" in a traditional manner. The Scholarship Program is inspired and guided by classical, traditional principles of ethical and virtuous living in human relationships and social conduct. The "Three Fundamental Bonds" (Sāngāng; 三纲) pertain to and reflect traditional society’s most fundamental social relationships: parents and children, seniors and youth, and marital partners. As essential relationships, these three serve as shorthand for all human relationships. The Five Constant Virtues (Wŭcháng; 五常) pertain to the virtues of benevolence (ren 仁), righteousness (yi 義), propriety (li 義), wisdom (zhi 智), and trustworthiness (xin 信). As with the Fundamental Bonds, these five virtues are the most significant ones and thus serve as shorthand for all the Confucian virtues. In other words, the Three Fundamental Bonds designate the social relationships that are essential for structuring human social life, while the Five Constant Virtues are the values needed to live a moral life
Information about prospective students, who may be appropriate for this Program, should be directed to attention of The Scholarship Awards Committee, via a precise and concise letter from interested parties to contact@tdyn.org with the phrase "Mirnova Scholarship" in the subject-line. Thank You.
