NOTE : Students from AICTE/UGC approved Institutions are eligible to apply for scholarship

Regions:
Regional South
Regional North
Regional East + North East

Professional – 10% (Membership in professional bodies, coordinating activities of the professional bodies, office bearer of any professional body/student chapter, contributing to professional bodies through papers presentations etc)

Eligibility Guidelines :
Any Second year full time regular UG Engineering programme student from an AICTE/UGC approved institution
All regular credit courses must have been cleared in a single attempt by the applicant for all the semesters the applicant has cleared before submitting the application.
UG marks should be at least 60% in aggregate for the semesters cleared so far or corresponding to CGPA of at least 6.5 in a 10 point scale.

Stage 2:
Shortlisted candidates from the first level will give an online test. The online test is to assess the applicant’s knowledge in engineering subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Computer Science, Electrical & Electronics.). The total number of questions will be approximately 40 with multiple choice options .

A cut off mark/score will be decided for each regional level by the regional jury. Based on the cut –off, the applicants will be shortlisted for the next level.

Stage 3: Regional Level Assessment:

The topic will be communicated to the contestants at least 10 days in advance to enable the student to prepare.

Stage 4: National Level Assessment:
The Final competition will be held at Delhi on August 23, 2013. Shortlisted candidates will make a presentation on their vision and solution, as they see it, for an engineering problem that is relevant to society. The topic will be the same as that of the regional rounds. The presentation will be followed by Q&A with the jury.

The final section of the National Round competition will also feature a Group Discussion (GD) among the finalists. The topic for this GD will be given by the jury on the day of the national competition.
