Scholarship
Dr. A.N. Mukhopadhyay Needy Student Fund (B.Sc. Agriculture - Final Year Student)(DRANMNSF)
Overview
About DRANMNSF
The Dr. A.N. Mukhopadhyay Needy Student Fund is a merit-cum-need award for students in the final year of a B.Sc. Agriculture programme. It offers financial support to students who are doing well academically but face genuine financial pressure, so that money is less likely to interrupt the last stretch of the degree.
The fund is maintained by Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology (GBPUAT) at Pantnagar, in the Udham Singh Nagar district of Uttarakhand. Inaugurated in November 1960, GBPUAT was the first agricultural university set up in independent India, and it lists this award among the scholarships and prizes it keeps for B.Sc. Agriculture students. On the national myScheme portal the scheme appears under Uttarakhand, within the state's agriculture department.
The award is meant to ease a student's economic burden during the final year of study. It is aimed narrowly at final-year B.Sc. Agriculture students who are both meritorious and in genuine need, rather than at applicants across all years or courses. The precise eligibility rules, the form the support takes, and the value of the award are set by the university.
