Description

The AIChE Minority Affairs Community's Minority Scholarship Awards for College Students is presented to selected AIChE undergraduate student members annually. Applicants shall be required to be undergraduates in chemical engineering during the current academic year and be members of a minority group that is under-represented in chemical engineering. Applicants who will complete the chemical engineering baccalaureate degree requirements in mid-academic year, if successful, will receive prorated awards. Thanks to a multi-year gift by Lance Collins, the most exceptional applicant will be recognized as the 2025 Collins Scholar. Selection of winners will be based on the applicant's academic record; the applicant's participation in AIChE student chapter, and professional or civic activities as outlined in the chapter advisor's, department chair's, or other faculty member's evaluation in their letter of nomination; and the applicant's career objectives and plans as outlined in their career essay.
