Working Student Assistantship Programme (WSAP)
The Working Student Assistantship Programme (WSAP) is a short-term placement of undergraduates as trainees with externship providers within the University. This program aims to assist students financially while developing their career skills toward a successful and self-led future. We firmly believe that creating a culture of being responsible and accountable while earning will positively impact the student rather than giving free money in the form of scholarships/bursaries. This programme is funded by Alumni members of the University of Peradeniya and other donors.
The overall goal of this program is to empower students toward a successful and self-directed life while achieving the following objectives
Objectives
- To create a responsible and accountable culture through an effective work-study programme
- To create practical work exposure in the university to increase the career skills of students
- To strengthen the function of the university and the relationship of the university community
- To assist students in earning while studying in a dignified manner
