Computer science and engineering are two of the most popular study fields among students. With the increasing use of technology, these two fields are growing rapidly and have become prominent in every industry, from healthcare to defense. These fields are considered fascinating and practical areas of study. To promote higher education in these two study areas and to help students lightening their financial burden, NetGeek has come up with an exciting scholarship program open for 2021. This is an annual funding program that will be awarded to college and university students majoring in the following areas: computer science, software engineering, information technology, computer engineering, computer information systems, and graphic design.
The purpose of NetGeek behind funding this program is to encourage and support the next generation of coders to learn this important skill and make a positive impact on their communities and society. We are moving forward toward a more advanced world slightly and technology has secured a very important place in our day-to-day lives. From studying to connecting with our loved ones, we are getting more dependent on technology to do our work as fast as possible. But last few years, a sudden reduction in the number of tech students has been recorded, and the reason behind this is possibly the increasing cost of education. There is no doubt that a degree in computer science or engineering is a smart career move, but it requires lots of investment of money to earn one. And that is why NetGeek wants to make it possible for students to gain education in this study field through its scholarship program.
NetGeek supports its customer in managing their PCs, peripherals, networking, and systems so they can focus on their goals. It is more like very own business-savvy professionals who offer technical prowess. It helps people establish a business that’s dedicated to customer service and keep their business running smoothly.
