ASABE Foundation Engineering Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers
Overview
Each year the ASABE Foundation funds a $2,000 scholarship intended for undergraduate students in biological or agricultural engineering. Typically the award goes to a single recipient, though the P-120 Student Organizations Committee may grant more than one scholarship in a year if there is a sufficiently strong pool of candidates. The committee also reserves the right to withhold the award in any given year.
Eligibility
Applicants must meet all of the following conditions:
- Be a student of biological or agricultural engineering.
- Have completed at least one full academic year as an undergraduate.
- Not be a graduating senior in the semester or term when applying.
- Be enrolled in an engineering program accredited by ABET or CEAB.
- Hold a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale.
- Demonstrate financial need.
Permitted Use of Funds
Award proceeds may be applied only to tuition, fees, books, and on-campus room and board.
Selection, Notification, and Publicity
The P-120 Student Organizations Committee selects the recipient(s). Successful applicants will be notified in early June. Publication announcing the winner(s) will appear in a fall issue of Inside ASABE and will be distributed via press release.
Application Rules
Students may apply for multiple scholarships provided they satisfy each scholarship’s requirements. All submitted essays must be original work. A student may receive only one ASABE Foundation-funded scholarship in any single academic year.
