4 August 2006 -- To support the efforts of the future workforce, Kelly Engineering Resources is now accepting entries for its fourth annual Future Engineers Scholarship program, which recognizes exceptional engineering students throughout the nation.
Kelly Engineering Resources created the Future Engineers Scholarship program to encourage student interest in a career in engineering, to foster excellence in the engineering field and to help alleviate a critical current and future shortage of highly qualified engineers.
All sophomore- and junior-level college engineering students who meet the program criteria are invited to compete for the scholarship by submitting essays on contemporary engineering topics. Candidates will be evaluated on their demonstrated potential for and commitment to a career in engineering, outstanding academic performance and depth of knowledge about the issue or challenge addressed in the essay.
In December 2006, the student with the winning essay will be presented a $5,000 scholarship, which may be used toward eligible expenses for tuition, fees, books, and room and board during the 2007 calendar year.
Partners of the 2006-2007 program with Kelly Engineering Resources include Automation Alley, Engineering Society of Detroit, Society of Manufacturing Engineers, Chemical Processing magazine, Power Engineering magazine and Nuclear News.
Submission materials, guidelines and essay questions are available at www.kellyengineering.com. Kelly Engineering Resources must receive applications for the scholarship no later than October 15, 2006.
