The Boettcher Foundation is hosting two webinars for students to help navigate the Scholarship Application Process. During these webinars, presenters will discuss how students can “ACE” their college and scholarship applications, including tips on how to help your applications stand out. You can register to attend one of the webinars by clicking on the date you wish to attend (please note that you only need to attend one, as the same information will be presented during each webinar): Thursday, September 29 (12-1 p.m.) Thursday, October 6 (6-7 p.m.) Because the Zoom attendee number is limited, please only register if you will be able to watch the webinar during the scheduled date and time. These webinars will NOT be recorded, but if you cannot attend, you can still watch an abbreviated recording of the presentation on the FAQs and Resources page of their website (located under the question asking if the Boettcher Foundation provides resources on how to be competitive in a scholarship application).

$10,000 Scholarships Available to Students AIAA is committed to shaping the future of aerospace and we provide over $100,000 in scholarships and graduate awards annually to students across the country to assist in their dreams of becoming leaders in their fields. To help students, AIAA also provides scholarships to high school seniors intending to pursue an engineering or scientific degree at a college or university. The deadline to apply for a scholarship is 31 December 2022. To view full eligibility requirements and application documents, visit the AIAA website. AIAA Lockheed Martin Marillyn Hewson Scholarship The AIAA Lockheed Martin Marillyn Hewson Scholarship was created in 2022 to encourage young women to study aerospace engineering and pursue a career in the aerospace defense industry. The scholarship is named for Marillyn Hewson, former chairman, president, and chief executive officer of Lockheed Martin Corporation. She joined Lockheed Martin in 1983 as an industrial engineer. During her career she held leadership positions, including president and chief operating officer; executive vice president of Lockheed Martin’s Electronic Systems business area; president of Lockheed Martin Systems Integration; executive vice president of Global Sustainment for Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. Made possible by donations from the Hewson Family Foundation and Lockheed Martin, the scholarship awards one $10,000 scholarship to a female high school senior and one female university student who are intending to or already pursuing an engineering major at a college or university in the United States or one of its territories. AIAA Roger W. Kahn Scholarship The Roger W. Kahn Scholarship was created to honor the memory of Roger Kahn (1907–1962) and his passion for aviation and entertainment. Kahn spent the latter part of his career at Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation as a test pilot and then managed the technical service and sales division. In the 1940s, Kahn was actively involved with the Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences (one of the predecessor organizations of AIAA) and later served as its vice president. Kahn also was an accomplished jazz musician as early as the 1920s, composing songs often featured in stage productions and early films, as well as leading numerous orchestras. He became a recording artist for some of the first record labels including Victor, Brunswick, and Columbia. The scholarship recognizes the extraordinary potential of a student aspiring to become an engineering or science leader in the aerospace industry. Each year, AIAA awards up to four $10,000 Kahn scholarships to high school seniors. Scholarship Also Includes:

THE CHALLENGE
You get it. You’ve grasped an important scientific theory, concept or principle. Now can you share your insight? An inventive video can get across complex material that would take pages of text to communicate. To take part in the Breakthrough Junior Challenge, create a short video (3:00 minutes max) to explain a big idea in one of these fields:Physics
Your film can take any form you like: animation, talking head, documentary, dramatic reconstruction, whatever. It’s worth keeping in mind that video is a dynamic visual medium – using diagrams, simulations, physical demonstrations etc. is a lot more effective than standing in front of a blackboard talking. The videos will be judged according to the following criteria:
WHO CAN ENTER? Anyone between the ages of 13-18. SUBMISSION DEADLINE: You must submit your application and video no later than June 25, 2021 at 11:59 PM Pacific Daylight Time (West Coast USA). |
