JK Lakshmipat University (JKLU), Jaipur recently hosted Super 30 founder Anand Kumar for ‘Meet the Master Mentor’ event on April 6 at Kota. The focal point of the event was the unveiling of the JKLU – Anand Kumar’s ‘Super 10 Scholar’ List, drawing parallels with his illustrious Super 30 initiative.
Under this pioneering endeavor, 10 exceptional students will be handpicked by the Master Mentor himself and supported by JK Lakshmipat University for their undergraduate studies. These chosen scholars will receive a comprehensive scholarship covering tuition fees and expenses for a 4-year B.Tech program in Computer Science at JKLU, subject to meeting the minimum eligibility criteria and other prerequisites.
Over 600 aspiring engineering students, alongside parents and teachers, all eagerly seeking insights from one of India’s most revered mentors, attended. Kumar was joined by his former students, DB Singh and Amarnath Anand, both pivotal figures from Anand Kumar’s Super 30 initiative. Their presence infused the occasion with inspiration as they shared their transformative journeys with Mr. Kumar, motivating the audience with tales of perseverance and triumph.
Reflecting on the occasion, Anand Kumar remarked, “In crafting the ‘Super 10 Scholar’ initiative, we aim to replicate the transformative impact witnessed through the ‘Super 30’ program. Just as ‘Super 30’ has empowered countless underprivileged students to excel in engineering, I believe the ‘Super 10 Scholar’ list will be a beacon of opportunity for these bright young minds. JKLU’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of engineers is commendable, and I’m honored to be part of this initiative that will shape the future of our nation’s technological landscape.”
Kumar also encouraged students to pursue their preparations for admission to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) without succumbing to overwhelming pressure. He emphasized, “While clearing the JEE may not be feasible for everyone, there are always alternative pathways that can help you accomplish your dreams of studying at esteemed institutions like the IITs.” He highlighted the option of institutions like JKLU, which offer semester exchange programs with leading Indian IITs, IIITs, and various international institutions, providing opportunities to build successful careers.
Kumar also told students to approach their studies with passion and determination, emphasizing that success encompasses more than just exam scores; it also requires perseverance and a thirst for knowledge. He also stressed the importance of holistic preparation, urging students to prioritize personal growth alongside academic excellence.
