Support
Two $5,000 renewable scholarships will be awarded in May 2010.
Program Outline
Established in 2001, this scholarship is sponsored by SAE Detroit
Section to encourage children and grandchildren of Detroit
Section members to pursue careers in engineering or the sciences.
The Section recognizes there is a need for more student
candidates in these fields as a shortage of qualified graduates is
expected in future years.
Eligibility
All applicants must meet the following criteria:
- Be a child or grandchild of a current SAE Detroit Section
member.
- Be a high school senior and citizen of the United States at
the date of application.
- Intend to enroll in a two-or four-year engineering or
science program at an accredited college or university.
- Have a minimum 3.0 grade point average. SAT/ACT scores are
also considered and should be provided.
- Financial need is a consideration. Applicants must
submit a completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) form.
- Scholarship recipients must maintain a 2.5 grade point
average and remain in good standing in an engineering or science
program at the college or university in order to qualify for
scholarship renewal. A student having completed a two-year
program may continue for an additional consecutive two years at
a second school offering a complete engineering or science
degree program.
Selection
The SAE Detroit Section Scholarship Committee, in cooperation with
the SAE Foundation, will determine the scholarship recipients.
Applications are available online at
