The Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta allocates over $100,000 annually to acknowledge the academic excellence of students studying engineering and geosciences. Annually APEGGA transfers over $80,000 to the APEGGA Education Foundation. This Foundation uses these funds to award the existing APEGGA scholarships. One of the mandates of the Foundation is to support those activities of APEGGA which are aimed at enhancing the education and development of its members and potential members.

University Entrance Scholarship

The APEGGA Education Foundation offers 12 scholarships to Alberta high school graduates entering the Faculty of Engineering or the Departments of Geology or Geophysics at the University of Alberta or University of Calgary; or entering other universities or colleges in Alberta offering transfer programs in these disciplines. The Scholarships, valued at $2,000 each, are awarded on the basis of a combination of factors. An initial assessment is done on the basis of Grade 12 marks. The top 30 are then evaluated on the basis of extracurricular activities, three letters of reference, financial need and the student's statement outlining the reasons for entering the profession.

Deadline for submission: July 15, 2000
