Internshala, the career-tech platform, has announced its annual scholarship, Internshala Career Scholarship for Girls (ICSG) – 2023. ICSG is an annual award of INR 25,000 meant to recognise a girl who has fought against the odds to pursue a career of her dreams in any field — academics, sports, arts, or any other. The scholarship will be awarded as an allowance for pursuing an internship or undertaking a project in the chosen field, payment towards a specialized training program, special equipment, etc.
To be eligible for the ICSG scholarship, the applicant girls need to be of Indian nationality between the age group of 17 and 23 (as of December 31, 2022) and must fill out the application form by 15th January 2023.
The applications will be shortlisted based on four parameters including the element of the fight against odds, achievement, purpose, and need. To apply for the scholarship, the girl students need to fill out an online form prior to an interview and state their career objective. Through ICSG, Internshala has been able to help girls who after fighting against the odds and overcoming hardships, are still pursuing their careers relentlessly. Jasmeet Kaur and Isha Kumari were the winners of the ICSG-2022.
