<p><strong>Scholarships</strong> that target students interested in engineering provide an excellent way to help pay for the <strong>rising costs</strong> of higher education. Since engineering scholarships are plentiful and come from a variety of sources, such as corporations, non-profits, foundations, institutions, and governmental bodies, future engineers have a host of <strong>opportunities</strong> available to them.</p>
<p>Below is a <strong>list of the engineering scholarships</strong> we&#8217;ve found, as well as collections that other websites have compiled. (NOTE: Links go directly to scholarship pages.) Unless otherwise noted, the scholarships are related directly to engineering. You can use the navigational links below to jump to individual sections.</p>

<p><strong>Program Description</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">SEAP  places academically talented high school students with interest and  ability in science and mathematics as apprentices in Department of  Defense laboratories for eight weeks during the summer. These students  work with scientists and engineers who act as mentors. The program  offers students a unique and positive experience in their fields of  interest, thus encouraging them to pursue careers in science and  engineering. There are more than 35 Navy and Army laboratories currently  participating in the program.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The  apprenticeship program is designed to encourage students to pursue  science and engineering careers; acquaint qualified high school students  with the activities of Department of Defense (DoD) laboratories through  summer science and engineering research experiences; to provide  students with opportunities in and exposure to scientific and  engineering practice and personnel not available in their school  environment; to expose those students to DoD research and engineering  activities and goals in a way that encourages a positive image and  supportive attitude toward our defense community; and to prepare these  students to serve as positive role models for their peers by encouraging  other high school students to take more science and math courses.</p>
