RUTS Scholarship program

Rajamangala University of Technology Srivijaya, with a strong commitment to fostering equitable educational opportunities, has undertaken a significant initiative to assist students from low-income backgrounds. As a manifestation of this commitment, we have established a scholarship program designed to alleviate the financial burden on students facing economic challenges. This scholarship program goes beyond traditional financial aid by providing comprehensive support that covers not only tuition expenses but also various aspects of their educational journey.

The essence of this program is to enable students from the lowest quintile of household income, where financial constraints might be a formidable barrier to pursuing higher education, to access and complete their academic programs successfully. By removing the financial hurdles that often deter individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, we are dedicated to enhancing accessibility and promoting inclusivity in higher education.

This initiative aligns seamlessly with the Sustainable Development Goal 1.3.1, which emphasizes the admission of students hailing from the bottom 20% of household income groups in the country. Our scholarship program embodies the spirit of this goal, ensuring that these students not only gain admission but also have the financial support to progress through their academic journey, ultimately realizing their full potential.

In addition to addressing the immediate financial challenges, our university also provides holistic support to these students, including mentorship programs, career guidance, and access to resources that promote academic success. The goal is to create an enabling environment that empowers students to thrive academically and make the most of their educational opportunities. In essence, our scholarship program is not merely about providing financial relief; it is about fostering an atmosphere of educational equity, where every individual, regardless of their economic background, has the chance to attain their academic aspirations. By doing so, we contribute not only to individual advancement but also to the broader goal of building a more inclusive and prosperous society, consistent with the principles of SDG 1.3.1.
