This entry is an admission announcement for Azim Premji University rather than a scholarship, so no award value attaches to it. The university admits students to two year full time master programmes in education, development, and public policy and governance, and within these allows either a general route or a specialisation in areas such as curriculum and pedagogy, early childhood education, school organisation and leadership, health and nutrition, law and governance, livelihoods, and public policy and sustainability. Working professionals are among those the university invites to apply. The record does not name a current academic session, so intake details, fees and the schedule should be taken from the university website.

Admission to these master programmes is generally open to candidates holding a bachelor degree in any discipline from a recognised university, with candidates in the final year of their degree often permitted to apply subject to completing it before joining. The university states that working professionals are encouraged to apply, and prior experience in the education or development sector may be considered at the selection stage. Selection normally involves a written entrance test followed by an interview rather than degree marks alone. The minimum marks, final year rules and any programme specific requirement should be confirmed from the current admission notification.

Applications are made online through the admissions portal of the university for the intake concerned. Candidates are normally expected to register, complete the application form, indicate their programme and preferred test centre from the centres the university operates across the country, pay the application fee where one is charged, and then appear for the national entrance test on the scheduled day. Those who clear it are called for an interview, after which offers are issued through the portal. The form is accepted only until the announced closing date for the intake, and the test date and centre list are published on the official website.
