The Programme reflects the Company’s commitment to nurturing talent that will spearhead the nation’s digital ambitions and help build an artificial intelligence (AI)-ready workforce.
Formerly open only to first-year undergraduates, the Programme has been expanded this year to also include second-year undergraduates and postgraduates between the ages of 18-23 enrolled in recognised higher education institutions in Malaysia. The scholarships provide financial support, covering both tuition and living expenses. Scholars will also receive opportunities for internships and job placements with Maxis upon graduation, subject to meeting academic and programme criteria.

This reflects our belief that ‘Tomorrow Begins Today’, as we empower young Malaysian talent to shape the nation’s digital future.” - Patrick Er, Chief People & Transformation Officer of Maxis
