The scholarships are granted to students studying in the third year of the Faculty of Engineering. Both the academic performance of the students during the past two years as well as their requirement for financial aid are taken in to account when the scholarships are awarded to a student. During the past two years we have awarded scholarships to six students. This year we intend to award a further five scholarships, she added. Besides a financial grant provided for personal expenses, the students receive many other benefits by being part of the MillenniunIT Undergraduate Scholarship Programme. The students are invited to do their final year projects with MillenniumIT® and all required material for the projects are bought and provided free of charge by the Company. While conducting their projects, the students will be part of MillenniumIT® and will receive all benefits enjoyed by regular staff members. The students after their graduation, though not compelled to, are also encouraged to join the MillenniumIT® team, thus guaranteeing them employment. The Vice Chancellor of the University of Moratuwa Prof. Malik Ranasinghe, commenting on the scholarship programme said that he appreciates MillenniumIT® coming forward and carrying out a worthy project of this nature, and thanked the Company for working closely with the University of Moratuwa not only in this instance but also by providing feedback to the university as well as its undergraduates on the specific requirements of the ever changing IT industry.
