In recognition of the contributions of people who identify as women at McElhanney, this scholarship is designed to inspire and celebrate future leaders in Engineering and Engineering Technology while upholding our unwavering commitment to creating space where women have equal opportunity to grow their careers. The ideal candidate identifies as a woman and strives to be an ally for women, has demonstrated strong leadership within their community, is currently enrolled in an accredited baccalaureate or graduate program, and has a passion for a career in an Engineering or Engineering Technology discipline that applies to McElhanney.

We welcome applications from students who identify as women of all backgrounds, including but not limited to Indigenous Peoples, racialized groups, persons with disabilities, members of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, and other equity-deserving groups.

The selected recipient, currently enrolled in an education program, will receive up to $5,000 to help cover tuition, textbooks, supplies, and living expenses (including on-campus housing), along with a direct internship opportunity.

Candidates are also encouraged to apply for opportunities to join McElhanney as an intern or new graduate during our regular recruitment cycles (winter, summer, and fall), which will be advertised on McElhanney’s website and via most post-secondary institutions’ communications.
