THE TIME TO RECOGNISE TOMORROW’S LEADERS IS TODAY
PRESENTING — THE ADITYA BIRLA GROUP SCHOLARSHIP
The Aditya Birla Group. Epitomising the philosophy of its legendary leader – the late Aditya Vikram Birla – one man who made a difference. Rooted in Indian values, yet global in vision. Rock solid in fundamentals. Nurturing a culture where success does not come in the way of the need to learning afresh, to keep innovating, to keep experimenting. Transcending the conventional barriers of business – working in 3,000 villages reaching out to 7 million people every year, because we care.
The Aditya Birla Scholarship Programme is the Group’s way of pursuing Mr. Aditya Vikram Birla’s ideals of spawning leaders with a passion to excel. Attained through fostering outstanding academic excellence and humane leadership values, in partnership with select IITs, BITS (Pilani), IIMs, XLRI and law campuses.
Instituted in 1999, the Aditya Birla Scholarships provide an excellent opportunity for Scholars to learn through networking with the country’s first truly global conglomerate. While there is no binding to join the Group after the completion of their course,
scholars are welcome to work with us should they qualify to do so.
