D. Cox Music Technology Scholarship
D. Cox was a beloved friend who sadly passed away too soon but believed in always doing what you love and loving what you do.
Sadly, many young people don’t get the opportunity to pursue the fields of their dreams. Creative students are often discouraged from going after artistic careers, with teachers, parents, and other adults stressing the value of fields like business or STEM instead. When this happens, the world is deprived of the next big musician, producer, or other talent.
This scholarship aims to honor the memory of D. Cox by supporting students who are passionate about music technology.
Any underrepresented minority high school or undergraduate student may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they’re interested in pursuing a career in music technology (composer, audio engineer, producer, sound designer, etc.).
To apply, tell us what inspired you to pursue music technology, how your passion has shaped your journey, when you realized you wanted to follow this path, what obstacles you have faced, and how you have overcome them.
