This fall, the Schulich School of Engineering is again offering up
to 50 entrance scholarships valued at $4,000 each. The Diversity Champions in
Engineering Awards will support students who have overcome barriers while
pursuing their education, those who have worked to promote inclusion in
Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), and those who have ideas for
how to make our school and profession more inclusive. All applicants to
first-year engineering are eligible to apply for the awards.
According to Engineers Canada, only one per cent of undergraduate
students in Canadian engineering programs identified as Indigenous Peoples, and
only 20.7 per cent as female in 2016. Women account for only 12.8 per cent of
the practicing profession of engineering in Canada.
It is critical we continue to bring together a variety of
perspectives within engineering for the profession to thrive.
Students who would benefit from these awards, encourages to apply for engineering at the University of Calgary and
complete this brief award application. If they send it to us at sseawards@ucalgary.ca by January 9,
2020 they will be eligible for consideration.
