List of Engineering Scholarships in India
Engineering is one of the most popular career in India. Student which graduates from engineering studies not only get high paying jobs in India but they also will enjoy great social status in society. Unfortunately, the cost of pursuing engineering in India is continuously rising and students from lower-income groups are finding its hard to meet financial requirement set by the Engineering Universities.
Thats is the role of scholarships and funding in India. There is a lot of awareness of scholarships in overseas countries but once it’s come to India, no one talks about scholarships and I think the primary reason behind this would be lack of awareness. There is a lot of scholarships that can be applied to pursue studies in engineering in India.
These scholarships usually sponsored by Government organizations, Private Companies, Charitable Trusts and even Philanthropic Individuals. Details of the scholarship for engineering students in India that offer best scholarship schemes for engineering students are provided below.
