The Principals of Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Inc. (SGH) have established the Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Scholarship with the BSCES to encourage undergraduate college students who strive for excellence and who aspire to a career in civil engineering. The scholarship is in the amount of $7,500. All undergraduate-level civil engineering majors who are members of an ASCE Student Chapter or Club in Massachusetts, have completed a minimum of two-and-one-half years of a four-year program (or the equivalent portion of a five-year or part-time program), are eligible to apply for this scholarship.
Applications will be judged with equal weight given to three categories: professional presentation in the letter of introduction and resume, quality of ideas expressed and clarity of communication demonstrated in the one-page essay, and capabilities reflected in college/university transcript(s). A three-person committee consisting of two representatives of BSCES and one Principal of SGH will judge applications. BSCES reserves the option of publishing applicants’ essays in BSCES News and/or Civil Engineering Practice.
The scholarship is presented at BSCES Student Night, nominations are typically accepted December through March. Please direct all inquiries to Robert Keene at RWKeene@sgh.com.
