Undergraduate Scholarships

A wide variety of scholarship opportunities exist for students in the ECE department, in addition to those offered by the University and the College of Engineering—these opportunities span a range of criteria, from academic performance, to need, to area of study.

These ECE-specific scholarships vary in range and year, but each provides between $400 and $7,800 per year to eligible students—with a median award amount of $2,500. In addition, students are eligible (and frequently receive) more than one award, with the total amount varying based on semesters left until graduation, co-op status, and additional degree programs.
