JNTUK, Greenko, IIT Hyderabad Sign MoU For Sustainable Engineering
Three smart groups decided to work together to help students learn about clean energy.
The groups are a university called JNTUK, a company called Greenko that works on green energy, and another top school called IIT Hyderabad.
They signed a special agreement, called an MoU, to work together.
The agreement will bring a new class called Sustainable Engineering, where students learn how to make and use energy without hurting the planet.
Some students in this class will get money every month to help pay for their studies.
The company Greenko is paying for these scholarships, giving some students ₹10,000 each month for two years.
A few students who want to become scientists will also get bigger payments to do research for four years.
The students will get to practice their skills at Greenko's real work sites in Kakinada.
This will help students learn how to build a cleaner, greener future.
JNTUK signed a tripartite MoU with Greenko, Greenko School of Sustainability, and IIT Hyderabad.
The MoU supports a new MTech course in Sustainable Engineering (Energy Technologies) launched by JNTUK's EEE department.
Greenko will provide ₹10,000 monthly scholarships for two years to 10 MTech students annually, covering the first four batches.
Two PhD students per year will receive doctoral fellowships of ₹40,000 monthly for four years, covering the first two batches.
The five-year MoU links the programme to Greenko's Kakinada industrial zones through live projects, internships, and industry mentorship.
