Who Can Apply:
- Today’s young entrepreneurs, tinkerers, and visionaries are the future of the world and will go far if they stick to their dreams.

- Any BIPOC undergraduate student who is a first-generation college student may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they’re from the Midwest and attending a Midwest state school and if they’re pursuing Engineering, Computer Science, Physical & Applied Sciences, Mathematics, Business or Design.
- The first-place winner will receive $2,500, followed by a $1,500 runner-up award, and a $1,000 award for the third-place student.
