GSIS Sets Sights on Future Innovators with New STEM Scholarship Program
April 9, 2024 - The Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) is ushering in a new era of educational support with the introduction of a scholarship program dedicated to the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), slated for launch in 2025.
This strategic shift comes as the GSIS phases out its Educational Subsidy Program (GESP), ensuring that current beneficiaries will continue to receive support until their graduation. The new STEM-focused scholarship program is designed to foster the next generation of innovators and experts critically needed for national development.
“By investing in STEM education, we are not only supporting individual students but also contributing to the broader goal of nation-building,” a GSIS spokesperson stated. “The skills and knowledge gained through this program will be instrumental in driving forward our country’s scientific and technological advancements.”
The GSIS is committed to providing more than just financial assistance; it aims to cultivate a robust workforce equipped to meet the challenges of the future. Details on eligibility criteria and application procedures will be announced, ensuring a transparent and accessible process for all aspiring scholars.
With this initiative, the GSIS reaffirms its dedication to empowering the youth and laying the groundwork for a future led by skilled professionals in STEM disciplines.
