Every year, the ACEC California Scholarship Foundation seeks the best and brightest engineering and land surveying students in California and awards scholarships to them. Over the years, ACEC California has awarded over $700,000 in cash grants to hundreds of outstanding students.
The ACEC California Scholarship Awards are funded through generous donations from ACEC California Chapters, member firms, principals and employees. Donations to the Scholarship Foundation, a public non-profit benefit corporation, are tax deductible. Every dollar goes directly to the student – no money is used for overhead or administrative costs. The ACEC California Scholarship Foundation is administered through the generous volunteer work of ACEC Chapter members.
ACEC California will be awarding up to $65,000 in scholarships for qualified engineering and land surveying students throughout California for the 2024-2025 academic year ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 each. Sierra Chapter members serve as liaisons with local colleges and universities to distribute applications and promote the scholarships. I send information to Sac State and UOP while Rosa Griggs takes care of UC Davis.
ACEC-CA will be accepting applications until 5:00pm on January 26, 2024. All of the necessary information as well as the scholarship application are available at this link:

The packages were also recently e-mailed to college Engineering Departments throughout California.
If you know a student who may be eligible for this year’s scholarship, please pass this information on to them.
