Scholarship Exam Details

The L&T Build India Scholarship is a unique "industry-academia" collaboration between Larsen & Toubro (L&T) and premier institutes like IIT Madras, IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, and NIT Surathkal. It targets final-year civil and electrical engineering students who wish to pursue an M.Tech in Construction Technology and Management. This is a fully-funded sponsorship; L&T pays the entire tuition fee to the IIT/NIT and provides a monthly stipend of ₹13,400 to the student. The most significant highlight is that upon successful completion of the M.Tech, scholars are absorbed into L&T as regular employees with a competitive package. It is essentially a "Job-plus-Degree" scholarship, making it one of the most career-securing awards in the engineering sector. The selection process involves a national-level online test followed by a technical and HR interview conducted by L&T’s leadership team.
