The scholarship provides students with the necessary resources and an all-encompassing education to excel in their chosen field. The Armed Forces Cell of the university also serves as a medium to support, train and motivate interested students to join the defence forces.
The scholarship is applicable to all regular courses, and interested students are urged to apply at the earliest. Parul University in Vadodara has released guidelines for the Defence Scholarship program, aimed at encouraging and facilitating higher education for dedicated personnel and their dependents in the Indian Army, Indian Navy, Indian Air Force, and Indian Coast Guard.
The scholarship scheme includes provisions for both serving and retired defence personnel nominated through study leave. The scholarship program is applicable to all regular courses offered by the university.
The guidelines emphasize that the initiative is an attempt to provide the necessary resources to enable the defence forces' dependents to access higher education and provide a stepping stone towards a successful future.
