KATHMANDU: Ncell, continuing its programme, awarded Ncell Scholarships and Excellence Awards to the top students of five faculties at the Institute of Engineering (IoE), Pulchowk Campus on Friday, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). This marks the 10th year of their collaboration with IoE.
The faculties included in this programme are Civil, Electrical, Electronics and Communication, Computer, and Mechanical Engineering. The awards were presented to students at a ceremony at Ncell ICON, the company's headquarters in Lainchaur, Kathmandu, attended by IoE faculty and students' family members.
In 2023, a total of 18 Ncell Scholarships were awarded to top students from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year. Additionally, six students who graduated with the highest marks from the five faculties received the Ncell Excellence Awards.
The Excellence Awards were presented by IOE Dean Prof Dr Shashidhar Joshi and Ncell CEO and MD Jabbor Kayumov. The Ncell Scholarships were handed over by Ncell’s extended management team members — Vishal Upadhyaya, Umair Mohsin, and Lena Keshari Kansakar.
At the awards ceremony, Ncell CEO Kayumov said, “At Ncell, we are honoured to drive this recognition that will inspire students to continue doing their best. We believe that empowering the next generation is a commitment to fostering innovation, progress, and positive change. Your achievements make us proud and serve as an inspiration for future generations. We believe that our support can shape the future of our generations and you are the promise and future of our country. I remember when I received scholarships for my achievements 20 years ago, which helped me become who I am today. This recognition will inspire everyone to continue doing what they do best. I also thank the IoE for their efforts in developing and shaping the talents for the future of our society.”
IOE Dean Prof Dr Joshi shared, “I want to acknowledge the achievements of our students, who have excelled in their studies and made a mark on the global stage. It's heartening to hear success stories of our alumni who are contributing significantly to the world. As we celebrate the success of our students, I'm reminded of the transformative power of education and the potential each one of you holds. I believe that your destiny lies in your passion and the pursuit of your dreams. To the recipients of the Ncell Award, congratulations! I am proud of your achievements.

Thank you, Ncell.”
