There will be three annual scholarships named 'UOS-IITUK MCM Scholarship' for undergraduate students studying at IIT’s in India.

The first MCMS scholarship is awarded to Amritansh Frank of IIT, Kanpur. Amritansh is a student of the B Tech programme in the Dept of MAT and Met Engg.

The scholarship

Each scholarship will be to a value of Rs. 2000 pm for a period of 10 months for the academic year.

The scholarships will be reviewed on an annual basis for value and continuity with no obligation on UOS and IITUK to continue.

The scholarships will be awarded to a second year UG student based on the criterion set out by IITs in line with their MCM scholarship policy. IITs will ensure that means testing is done adequately to the set criteria and the candidates are not in receipt of any other scholarship.

IITs will publicise the offer of scholarship on their appropriate advertising boards/ website etc clearly associating it with University of Southampton (www.southampton.ac.uk) and the IIT Alumni Association UK (www.@iituk.org).

Scholarship Administration

The MCMS scholarship will be administered by a joint panel of administrations from UOS and IITUK. They can be contacted at mcms@iituk.org

IITs will send three CVs of their recommendation to the administration panel who will make the final candidate selection. If the selected candidate withdraws for any reason or is awarded another scholarship then the panel will revert with the next selection.

The panel may request the progress of the candidate based on mid-term or semester end exams.

The panel may be interested in the progress of the awardee after graduation to the extent possible.

The scholarship is publicized on the IIT Kanpur web site and the link for that is given below
