Scholarships

The College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology is dedicated to helping our students study abroad. Below is a list of scholarships available for various study abroad programs. You can also explore other funding options, like scholarships from parental workplaces or local community organizations. You are more likely to receive funding if you choose less common destinations, such as Asia, instead of Western Europe. As an engineering student, you are part of a group underrepresented in study abroad programs, which may increase your chances of receiving support from external foundations and organizations.
