New Scholarships Established in AE
AE Newsletter - Spring/Summer 2001
The Department of Architectural Engineering is pleased to report on philanthropic efforts of alumni and friends, that have resulted in the establishment of eight new scholarships in AE (shown below). Consideration for these scholarships will be given to those students who manifest the promise of academic success, show an active interest in their discipline, and in some cases, where their hard work or financial need deserve special encouragement.

We wish to thank all those involved for their commitment to the educational opportunities of our AE students.
