Scholarships
The global demand for engineers is increasing. In order to address this demand, the College is focused on educating the engineering leaders of tomorrow today. To continue to create a pool of exceptional engineering students, the College must enroll and retain a highly qualified, diverse student body. An essential component to the recruitment and retention of the best and brightest is a wide array of scholarship opportunities for students.
