Who Can Apply:
- Diversity in engineering is slowly growing, but there is still a long way to go to achieve gender parity and true minority representation.
- African American women are at the intersection of racial-based and gender-based oppression in the engineering field. As a result, young Black women may find their college classes in the engineering discipline to be isolating and intimidating, contributing to the continuation of the cycle of underrepresentation.
- This scholarship seeks to support Black women who are passionate about breaking into the field of engineering so they can have the resources necessary to complete their education.
- Any African American female high school senior or undergraduate student who has at least a 3.0 GPA and is pursuing engineering may apply for this scholarship.
Submission: To apply, tell us about a Black woman who has inspired you and how that experience will help you achieve your goals.
