Immigrant

The road to the American dream is not the same for all who follow it.

Immigrants in particular face a significant set of challenges when striving to pursue higher education and professional success in America. A lack of financial resources, few connections in academia, language barriers, and more can complicate one’s pursuit of a college degree.

This scholarship seeks to support female immigrants as they pursue higher education in male-dominated fields.

Any female immigrant who is a high school senior, undergraduate, or graduate student pursuing engineering may apply for this scholarship.

To apply, tell us your story, how coming to America affected your career aspirations, and what areas of engineering excite you.
