AI-Enabled Scholarship and Fellowship Management System for Scheduled Tribes

Source summary

Develop a common scholarship and fellowship administration platform for Scheduled Tribe students, covering application, documents, eligibility checks, scrutiny, selection, communication and post-selection management. Scheme-specific criteria and document requirements must be configurable within the shared system. Applicant and ministry interfaces should support status tracking, deficiency notices, corrected submissions and monitoring dashboards. Use rules and appropriate AI tools such as OCR or document intelligence to assist verification and screening against approved criteria, with human oversight retained for selection. The source includes domestic research fellowships and overseas postgraduate scholarships within its intended scope.
