AISES Intel Growing The Legacy Scholarship Program

Scholarship Application is Available for Academic Year 2021-2022

 

AISES has received a $1.82 million contribution from Intel to support undergraduate and graduate scholarships for Native Americans. The support is part of a partnership between Intel and AISES to increase the number and success of Native American students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.

 

The Intel Growing the Legacy Scholarship Program will support undergraduate and graduate students. This Program includes financial support, mentorship, paid internship opportunities, and, upon successful graduation, employment opportunities with Intel. While this program is not automatically renewing, awardees are encouraged to re-apply each year. Intel has made a tremendous four-year commitment to support the “Growing the Legacy” scholarship program at AISES to support 40 Native American university students every year for four years by providing them with financial support, Intel mentors, paid internships, and an Intel job upon successful graduation. Students who are awarded will receive scholarships ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 per academic year.
