The scholarship aims to support deserving students receive the best education they deserve and encourage their studies and research in the fintech and blockchain fields. After reviewing applications based on the student's academic standing, grade point average, and need, a total of 38 recipients have been selected for the AUS-Bybit Fund Scholarship, which has a total funding pool of AED 1 million.

The scholarship will cover 25 percent of tuition fees for both the Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 semesters.

The selected students mainly major in computer engineering and computer science.

"As a center of excellence and research and a catalyst for change, AUS is mindful of its important role in producing professionals who possess the skills and technical knowledge that allow them to grow in dynamic markets and evolving industries. We also believe in the importance of working closely with our industry partners to meet their needs and bridge any gaps between academia and businesses. Our partnership with Bybit and the establishment of the AUS-Bybit Fund Scholarship will empower our students in the fintech and blockchain fields in a digital world that is constantly growing," said Dr. Fadi Aloul, Dean of the College of Engineering at AUS.

"We could not be more thrilled to finalize details of our scholarship fund to support bright minds at AUS," said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit. "We are also honored that over the past few months, AUS and Bybit have nurtured a shared vision of empowering the next generation of fintech and blockchain pioneers. The trailblazing spirit of the 38 recipients reminds me of my own beginnings. I hope this fund can fuel their journeys of discovery and unleash a wave of innovation from the UAE that will shape the future of digital assets globally."
