DOST 1

In support of the execution of laws under the K-to-12 program of the Philippine government that urges the hiring of Science & Technology  (S&T) teachers, the Department of Science & Technology-Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI) is implementing the Junior Level Science Scholarship (JLSS) program under Republic Act (RA) 10612 known as the “Fast-Tracked S&T Scholarship Act of 2013”.

The RA 10612 is based on Republic Act 7687 or the “Science & Technology  Scholarship Act of 1994” thus, the qualifiers of the JLSS Scholarship will receive the privileges following the existing financial assistance provided to RA 7687 Scholars during the remaining years of their undergraduate studies. Upon graduation the scholars are required to serve as Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) teachers in any public or private high school in the country, preferably in their hometown. They will be allowed to teach initially without passing the (Licensure Examination for Teachers) but should pass it within five years of hiring. Teacher training will also be given by the Philippine Normal University to ensure the competitiveness of the scholar-teachers in the field of teaching.

JLSS examination was administered nationwide last October 18, 2014. A total five hundred (500) third year college students successfully hurdled the examination. The following are passers and become the new scholars from Region 1:

Charlotte V. Balderas, Jeric Aren O. Dedicatoria, Ronald G. Gamboa, Julius Aaron P. Mejia, Michell O. Pere, Ramil V. Petines, Rodeney C. Rimbaoa, and  Joanna Grace S. Saladino.


The initial implementation of the JLSS program will take effect on the Second Semester of AY 2014-2015.
