Students Project Programme

             PSCST has initiated the Student Project Programme with a view to provide financial support to final year B.E., MBBS, M.E., M. Tech, M.D. M. Phil, M. Pharm, B. Pharm and M.Sc. students. The main objective and purpose of this programme is to encourage the students and faculty members of the engineering, medical colleges, polytechnics, universities and research institutions to use their talent in various branches of engineering, medical and basic sciences. This would help not only in meeting the qualitative and quantitative standards of our technical education but will also stimulate a number of students and faculty members to apply their mind to local problems and frame the project accordingly, which would be more beneficial to the State. These projects are expected to be formulated by final year students with the help of faculty which shall be evaluated by a committee in PSCST. The duration of the project shall not be more than a year and maximum financial support shall be Rs.10,000/- per project.
