Announcement of 2012-13 MAC-AIChE Scholarship Applications
Dear Colleagues:
On behalf of the Minority Affairs Committee (MAC) of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), I am pleased to announce that applications for the 2012-13 AIChE Minority Scholarship Awards for Incoming College Freshmen, College Students, and AIChE Outstanding Scholastic Achievement Award are being accepted. The deadline to submit application form is June 15, 2012. Since last year 2011, we have implemented a full on-line application process that can be accessed via the links:
College Students:
http://www.aiche.org/Students/Awards/MinorityScholarshipAwardsStudent.aspx

Incoming Freshmen (Senior High School Students):
http://www.aiche.org/Students/Awards/MinorityScholarshipAwardsIncomingFreshmen.aspx

Individual awards for the full academic year will be $1,000.00 per recipient and $1,500 for the Outstanding Scholastic Achievement award recipient. Applicants must be members of a minority group that is under-represented in chemical engineering, i.e., African-American, Hispanic, Native American, and Alaskan-Native. Applicants for the incoming freshmen (high school seniors) scholarship awards are encouraged to choose a course of study leading to a degree in science/engineering.
The Incoming College Freshmen Scholarship Award, first awarded in 1994, is based on the applicant’s academic record, participation in school and work activities, reason for choosing science/engineering, and financial needs. While the College Students Scholarship Award, also first awarded in 1994, is based on the applicant’s academic record, participation in AIChE student chapter and professional activities, career objectives, and financial need are also considered. And the Outstanding Scholastic Achievement award first awarded in 1996 is based on the applicant’s academic and scholarly achievements, and exemplary outreach activities.
Please feel free to forward this e-mail to those that may benefit from the scholarships. Thank you.
