Malhotra Weikfield Foundation (MWF) The world of science is vast, every student wants to make a mark in that field by furthering their educational pursuits. However, it comes at a cost which is not affordable to many despite their high merits. To solve this issue the Malhotra Weikfield Foundation stretches out its hand to underprivileged students. Every year, the program assists over 120 underprivileged meritorious students, who have secured 75% and above in their HSC and B.Sc. final year, to pursue their under-graduate B.Sc. degrees and postgraduate M.Sc. degrees respectively. These students are vested in various pure scientific fields such as Microbiology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Zoology, Statistics and Botany and Astrophysics. The Foundation gives special preference to female students in a 2:1 ratio, as it is well-known that the underprivileged rural families will go all out to find funds to educate their sons, but rarely do the same for their daughters. Another special feature of the MWF Scholarship programme is providing each student with a Mentor to coach, guide and help them cope with issues faced in all aspects of life, thereby ensuring their overall intellectual development.
