The DOST-SEI Merit Scholarship Program, formerly known as the NSDB or NSTA Scholarship, begun in 1958. Merit scholars pursue priority courses in the basic sciences, engineering, other applied sciences and science and mathematics teaching at identified universities.

b. RA 7687 Science and Technology Scholarship Program
Republic Act No. 7687, also known as the Science and Technology Scholarship Act of 1994, provides for scholarships to talented and deserving students whose families' socio-economic status do not exceed the set cut-off values of certain indicators.

c. Junior Level Science Scholarship (JLSS) Program
These are scholarship grants to qualified third year students who are enrolled in priority fields of study in engineering, basic and applied sciences, science and mathematics teaching at identified universities and colleges. There are two component scholarships namely, Project GIFTS for the Disadvantaged - RA 7687 and Junior Level Science Scholarships-Merit.
