Scholarships
The global demand for
engineers is increasing. In order to address this demand, the College is
focused on educating the engineering leaders of tomorrow today. To
continue to create a pool of exceptional engineering students, the
College must enroll and retain a highly qualified, diverse student
body. An essential component to recruitment and retention of the best
and brightest is a wide array of scholarship opportunities for students.
Scholarships provide students with a vote of confidence and allow them
to focus full-time on the task at hand, making the most of a Michigan
Engineering education.
