Awards Details:

Every year, Tacuna Systems is pleased to offer a scholarship opportunity for women pursuing a career in the STEM field.

This program is designed to help encourage diversity in the engineering community, since women are still very much underrepresented in the engineering field today.

Our goal is to grant a $1000 scholarship award to two female students who are currently pursuing a higher education in science, technology, engineering or math. One scholarship will be awarded to a student at a US institution and one will be awarded to a student at a Canadian institution.

To be eligible for this scholarship, you must be:

• A female undergraduate or graduate student
• Pursuing a degree in science, technology, engineering or math
• Attending a US or Canadian institution
• 17 years of age or older
• No GPA requirement

As part of your application submission, you must create a brief video of yourself showcasing a STEM-related project that you have worked on or are currently working on. Keep in mind that the video should be no longer than 2 minutes. Things to consider while creating your video:

• Passion – Why is this project important to you?
• Learning – What did you take away from this project?
• Application – How does this project relate to the industry?
• Improvement – What could you do differently?
• Originality – Do you have valuable insight or ideas that industry leaders have not thought about?
