The EUS Scholarship was established in 2009 to recognize demonstrated leadership, personal initiative, innovation, and service to the UBC Engineering community.  Each year, two junior awards of $500 and two senior awards of $1000 are awarded to deserving undergraduate engineering students.  This year, the applications are due on May 31, and successful applicants will be notified by June 27.

Congratulations to last year’s winners, Tagg Jefferson, Winnie Lai, and Ariel Winkelmeyer.
