Scholarship Opportunity: The Alaska Society of Professional Engineers (ASPE) is offering scholarships for high school seniors interested in pursuing a degree in engineering. Through the Alaska Engineering Education Foundation (AEEF) several scholarships are funded. There are two AEEF scholarships awarded statewide: one for $2,000 through AEEF, which is awarded as $1,000 over a two-year period, and a second from ASPE for $1,500. This one application will place a student in consideration for MULTIPLE scholarships. To help encourage more participation from the rural school districts, two pools have been created for evaluation. Students in the Anchorage, Mat-Su, and Kenai Peninsula school districts will be evaluated separately from other students in southcentral Alaska. This means that students in small school will be competing against other small school students. The 2023 AEEF Scholarship application can be found at https://alaskaeef.org/2023-aeef-scholarship-application/ . Please note that the deadline for submission is midnight of January 20, 2023. Winners will be announced on February 25, 2023. Students must plan on attending an ABET accredited engineering program and the funds will be sent to the financial aid office of the college or university. Please do not hesitate to contact Jeanne Bowie (jeannebowie@kinneyeng.com) if you have any questions.
