Description

The ASHRAE Region I Setty Family Foundation Scholarship is a one-year scholarship available annually to a qualified undergraduate mechanical or architectural engineering student attending a post-secondary educational institution within the geographic boundaries of ASHRAE Region I or who has graduated from a high school within Region I and meets the general scholarship criteria. Scholarships are available to undergraduate engineering or pre-engineering students pursuing a Bachelor of Science or Engineering degree in a course of study that has traditionally been a preparatory curriculum for the HVAC&R profession at a school. Applicants must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 and/or a class standing of no less than the top 30 percent and meet at least one of the following criteria: (1) the institution hosts a recognized ASHRAE student branch ASHRAE Student Branches; (2) or the program is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET); (3) or the program is accredited by the Consejo de Acreditacion de la Ensenanza de la Ingenieria (CACEI). Applicants must submit three signed letters of recommendation, one from an instructor or faculty advisor, a current or past employer, and another character reference (other than a family member). In cases where the institution has an ASHRAE student branch on campus, a letter from the faculty advisor of that branch may be one of the three letters of recommendation.
