ACEC of Tennessee Scholarship Program
The American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of Tennessee is proud to be a part of the national scholarship program set up by ACEC. It is another example of how ACEC and ACEC of Tennessee are committed to education and the future of our profession.
The 2011 ACEC of TN Scholarship winners were Carolyn Mariano, a civil engineering student at the University of Memphis, and Rebekah Kerley, a graduate structural engineering student at TN Tech.
To qualify, a student must be a U.S. citizen pursuing a Bachelor's, Master's, or Doctor of Philosophy degree in an engineering or land surveying program in Tennessee in a department that has at least one ABET-accredited program. Students must be entering their junior, senior, fifth, or graduate year in the fall of 2012 to qualify. Candidates for the CASE scholarship (a national scholarship) must be enrolled in a Master’s degree program for Structural Engineering in the 2012 fall semester.
A student's interest and commitment to the business and management of the profession are factors that will be considered and students are encouraged to reflect that throughout the application. Students are also encouraged to be as complete as possible while filling out the application.
The deadline for submitting an application to ACEC of Tennessee is January 20, 2012. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
