Solution
I) Because financial literacy programs are being introduced in several universities Combined sentence: Because financial literacy programs are being introduced in several universities, young adults are learning to manage their personal finances more responsibly.

Correct II) Financial literacy programs being introduced in several universities Combined sentence: Financial literacy programs being introduced in several universities, young adults are learning to manage their finances. This construction is grammatically incorrect because the participle phrase does not form a proper clause.

This expresses future consequence, which is logically valid. Correct Thus both I and III work correctly.
