Barrackpore are not explicitly detailed in the provided search results, here's a brief overview of potential scholarship opportunities:
1) Swami Vivekananda Merit-cum-Means Scholarship (SVMCM): This is a West Bengal state government scholarship for meritorious students from economically backward families pursuing higher studies in the state. B.Tech students, including those in Mechanical Engineering, are eligible to apply if they meet the academic criteria (usually 60% or 75% marks in the last qualifying examination) and family income limit (currently Rs. 2,50,000 per annum). The scholarship amount varies based on the course.
2) OASIS Scholarship: This scholarship is provided by the Backward Classes Welfare Department of West Bengal for SC, ST, and OBC students pursuing higher education. Mechanical Engineering students belonging to these categories may be eligible if they have secured at least 50% marks in the last final examination.
3) Kanyashree Scholarship Scheme: This scheme by the West Bengal government provides financial assistance to girl students. While primarily for girls from Class 8 to postgraduate studies in Arts, Science, and Commerce, some postgraduate level benefits might extend to female B.Tech Mechanical Engineering students who meet the criteria.
4) University-Specific Scholarships: Swami Vivekananda University itself may offer certain merit-based scholarships or financial aid to its students. The search results mention that scholarships are available for eligible candidates and that the SVCM scholarship gives Rs. 60,000 annually, though it notes different amounts for different courses and that it is merit-based. It's advisable to check the university's official website or contact their admissions office for the most up-to-date information on internal scholarship programs and their eligibility criteria for B.Tech Mechanical Engineering students.
5) Other External Scholarships: Students can also explore various national and private scholarships available for engineering students based on merit, financial need, or other specific criteria. Websites like 'WeMakeScholars' list several such scholarships that students across India can apply for.
