Scholarship Program 

ACEC/MN is no longer accepting applications for Scholarship Awards for the 2008-09 Academic Year - Deadline was 11/2/2007.

If you're interested, please download and fill out the form here.

ACEC/MN scholarships are made possible by the generous donations from ACEC member firms as well as firms that participate in the annual softball and golf tournaments. In the fall, the ACEC/MN scholarship committee reviews applications from engineering students around the state. They rank the students based on their leadership skills, academic achievement, school and community activities, work experience and their understanding of the consulting engineering profession. These scholarships are then presented to the top-ranked students at the ACEC/MN Engineering Excellence Awards banquet.

Last year, ACEC/MN awarded 12 scholarships ranging from $1500 - $3500. These scholarships are made possible by donations from ACEC/MN firms. Four special scholarships were awarded last year:

• $2000 Don Stormoe Geotechnical Scholarship (to a student with a geotechnical focus)
• $2000 Geopier Foundation Company Scholarship (Golf Tournament Title Sponsor)
• The Bob Rosene Scholarship (to a student with a civil focus)
• The top-qualifying candidate will receive the Earl Oxley scholarship

To qualify a student must be:

• Pursuing a bachelor's degree in an accredited engineering program or in an accredited land surveying program.
• Entering their junior, senior or fifth year in the fall of 2009 to qualify.
• U.S. citizen
