THE Department of Science and Technology-Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI) is accepting applications for the 2020 S&T Undergraduate Scholarships Program until September 6, 2019. Date of nationwide examination is on October 20, 2019.
DOST-SEI Director, Dr. Josette Biyo, encourages all qualified Grade 12 students (School Year 2019-2020) to apply and pursue careers in science and technology.
“As long as you meet the requirements, seize and make the most of this opportunity to become a DOST scholar. We hope to reach not only the country’s best minds but also those with passion to serve the country,” she said.
DOST undergraduate scholars receive financial assistance of P40,000 per academic year to cover tuition and other school fees, living allowance of P7,000 per month, book allowance of P10,000 per academic year, and other scholarship privileges.
Application is open to students in the STEM strand but non-STEM students may also apply provided they belong to the top 5% of their graduating class.
