Scholarships in both the graduate and undergraduate levels are again being provided by The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers to encourage young men to pursue studies in the naval architectural and marine engineering or closely related fields. For the graduate study program, application forms have been forwarded to ship operating and shipbuilding companies, affiliated trades and to universities located in all sections of the country. Applications for graduate scholarships for the fall of 1969 should be filed with the secretary of the Society at 74 Trinity Place, New York, N.Y. 10006, before the closing date of February 1, 1969.
The maximum value of each scholarship is equal to the cost of tuition at the college selected plus living expenses in the amount of $2,100. The Scholarships Committee will determine in each case the exact value of the graduate scholarship award. Successful candidates may select the institution for his advanced studies subject to the approval of the Scholarships Committee.
Factors considered in making the selection include scholastic ability, the candidate's capacity to pursue advanced study, his ambition, personality and other factors indicative of prospective leadership status in the marine industry.
In addition to the graduate program, 12 undergraduate scholarships of $1,000 each are made available by the Society at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Michigan and the University of California at Berkeley. Those interested should contact the above institutions directly and not the Society since the award decisions on the undergraduate program have been assigned to them.
