The AIChE Minority Scholarship Award is presented to selected AIChE undergraduate student members annually.

Applicants who will complete the chemical engineering baccalaureate degree requirements in mid-academic year (i.e., after one semester of one or two quarters), if successful, will receive prorated awards.  

We are also delighted to announce that, thanks to a multi-year gift by Lance Collins, the most exceptional applicant will be recognized as the 2024 Collins Scholar.
