Students from humble backgrounds always remain under continuous financial
pressure. The effects of the weak economy, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, have
further exacerbated the monetary miseries of many households. Assistantships that
cover tuition fees and living costs could allow students to focus on their education
rather than worry about the repercussions of the appalling economy. In addition,
students could save their valuable time by keeping the focus on studies rather than
working part-time. Scholarships could therefore ease the financial burden on students
and families. Dawood University of Engineering and Technology (DUET) believes in
human development and equal opportunity for all. There are various scholarships, such
as Ehsaas, HEC Need Based, PEF, DCET Alumni, Kamran Educational Foundation,
IEP-SAC, Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal, Sindh Endowment Scholarship available for needy and
excellent students. The student scholarships are managed through the Financial
Assistance Department (FAD). Various scholarships are announced by the FAD all year
round. The record of the needy students, especially orphans and those belonging to the
underprivileged areas is maintained, and assistance is provided to such students on a
priority basis. At DUET, we take great pride in nurturing our future generations with
great compassion and empathy. Prospective students and their families are assured
that all students regardless of financial status-receive the same treatment because one
of DUET's core values is to provide quality education to all students, regardless of
ability to pay.
Due to the emergence of COVID-19, the past year was very unfortunate that saw awful impacts of this terrible disease on the
social and economic processes.The disruption of normal and the appalling effects of the economy has distressed many students.
However, due to the unwavering efforts of the FAD, many funding agencies came forward to rescue these students. Last year FAD
garnered around 791 scholarships for the neediest and deserving students. This year FAD has projected that 938 students will get
benefit from various scholarship programs.
