The Paul Foundation has been conceived to promote the individual's quest for intellectual excellence. To pursue higher studies in India and abroad, the Foundation will offer scholarships to those Indians who have shown the ability in their specific areas of interest, to give them an opportunity to develop their potential and be recognized as leaders.

Scholarship Details

The Paul Foundation Scholarship will be awarded to students aspiring to excel and to lead. The purpose is to make a difference by encouraging and stimulating outstanding scholars who have a demonstrated ability and intellectual excellence to produce thoughtful and thought-provoking work and who can in turn contribute to making a difference to society.

The scholarships are open for academic courses through taught programmes that contribute positively to building a learning and knowledge society. The choice of subjects is diverse, but not all-inclusive.
