The ENTECH Youth Excellence Scholarships will reward excellence and offer students an opportunity of getting a world-class education at Sri Lanka’s only research-based residential Engineering university campus. Focused on being Sri Lanka’s best research based Engineering University, the SLTC offers BSc (Hons) Engineering degree programmes in Electronics, Telecommunication, Power Systems, and Information and Communication. The Bachelor in Technology includes programmes in Electronics, Process Automation, Environmental Technology and Agri Technology. Students who have secured a minimum of 3Ss in their A/L in Physical Science, Bio Science, and Technology streams are eligible to apply for the degree programmes. The ENTECH Youth Excellence Scholarship offers a 100 percent fee waiver for students with 3As. Such students will have the opportunity of getting a degree in Engineering and Technology from highly recognized universities around the world, opening up a future of great possibilities. The Scholarship programme is also extended to other students with a 30 percent fee waiver for each A, 20 percent off for each B, and 10 percent off for each C. “This is the first time in Sri Lanka that students have been offered this kind of scholarship,” stated Eng. Ranjith Rubasinghe, President of SLTC. “As a responsible corporate citizen, we have taken this initiative to encourage aspiring and talented students to achieve their dreams and goals, as well as ensure a future generation of qualified innovators to lead this nation towards excellence.” The new semester for 2018 begins mid March with registrations closing by March 2nd. Students are invited to an Open Day at the SLTC city campus on January 13 where they will have the opportunity of meeting with and discussing their degree programmes with the SLTC academia and staff. Under the guidance of the Ministry of Telecommunication and Digital Infrastructure, the SLTC was launched with the motive of realizing Sri Lanka’s vision of becoming the knowledge hub in Asia. Fully owned by Sri Lanka Telecom, the campus offers a full four-year degree programme for students, designed to provide sound theoretical, practical and analytical knowledge with the fundamentals of engineering and technology. SLTC’s Engineering degree programmes are accredited by the Ministry of Higher Education and Highways and recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) of Sri Lanka. As Sri Lanka’s only corporate powered, fully residential and research-based engineering university campus, students at SLTC learn to integrate, study, learn and live together in cohesiveness and camaraderie. Apart from classroom study, students are also groomed to become productive citizens with personal and professional integrity by demonstrating leadership, effective decision-making and to hold the highest ethical standards. The Campus has expanded its infrastructure by adding new classrooms, women’s hostel facilities, a supersized auditorium, and library and laboratory services. SLTC provides on-site accommodation facilities with meals, study and living areas, laundry services, recreational facilities and 24/7 security services. The SLTC is located at the sprawling 35-acre Satellite Station in Padukka, which is easily accessible from Colombo via common transport modes.
