About the Scheme

The Earn While You Learn (EWYL) Scheme is an initiative designed to provide students with an opportunity to gain practical work experience and earn financial support while pursuing their academic studies. The scheme encourages students to develop professional skills, responsibility, time management, and a strong work ethic through meaningful work assignments within the college.

Students may be engaged in suitable administrative, library or other college-related activities, depending on their skills and the requirements of the institution. The work is arranged in a manner that ensures that students' academic commitments are not adversely affected.
