The AGMA Foundation offers $5,000 college scholarships for engineering students who have an interest in gear technology or gear research. Three scholarships were awarded in 2013 and the Foundation looks forward to awarding multiple scholarships again in 2014. Applications with transcripts and letters of recommendation are due by July 1. For scholarship guidelines and additional details, visit the scholarship page on the Foundation's website.
Please alert employees, interns, and exchange students who are pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering. A printable brochure that you can post on your web site and help promote in social media is available here.
