National ICT Scholarship will be awarded to study B.Sc.(Hons.) in Information Technology at LBEF CAMPUS. Students who have completed 10+2 or equivalent from a recognized board or a Diploma in Computer Engineering from CTVET will benefit from this scheme. Students who have appeared for 10+2 or equivalent examination can also apply. Female students will benefit the most from this scheme, and the reason for doing so is to further the educational opportunities of young women of future generations.
Scope:
The objective of the scheme is to award scholarships to meritorious students belonging to economically weaker sections of the community so as to provide them with better opportunities for higher education, increase their rate of attainment in higher education, and enhance their employability. Employment in computer-related occupations has seen significant growth in recent years; however, the representation of women in the computer science professions has continued to decline since the 1990s. One possible step to reverse the trend is to encourage more female students to undertake computer science. With this objective, we are planning to introduce National ICT scholarships to females and weaker sections of society.
