Each September, CJEC member societies inform their individual members of the scholarship availability. Scholarship applications must be received by CJEC’s Honors & Awards Committee Chairman on or before January 26, 2024. A committee of CJEC will select the scholarship recipient and the award will be made at the Engineers Week Banquet in February. CJEC will give special consideration to the financial needs of scholarship applicants.

In addition to the scholarship offered by CJEC, many member societies have scholarships available to students pursuing careers in engineering and/or engineering technology.
