EESF Master’s Degree Scholarships in Environmental Engineering and Science

Eight scholarships in the amount of $2,500 each are offered to students completing undergraduate degree programs at accredited four-year institutions. Applicants must have been accepted to enter an accredited graduate program to complete a Master’s Degree either in Environmental Engineering or related field of engineering or Environmental Science or related field. These scholarships are based on academic performance.
