IIT (BHU) Foundation announces the recipients of the IIT (BHU) Foundation Scholarship.
This means-based scholarship is the result of the Access Fund established by the Foundation through a generous US $2 million donation (https://lnkd.in/epd2Eydy) from Nikesh Arora, Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi (BHU) graduate and CEO of cybersecurity leader Palo Alto Networks.
This year, 22 students received the scholarship including 7 women. These awardees represent 6% of the 363 applications received. Of these 363 applications 17% were women but represented 36% of the recipients. Please refer below for the complete list of 22 recipients this year.
The Foundation celebrates the 22 recipients but does point out that there is a significant need for financial support to cover the sizable pool of candidates applying for assistance this year.
