Chevron Scholarship
I am seeking to study Engineering Economy in France this summer, and I am in need of financial assistance in order for me to go. This Chevron scholarship would make a significant impact on the cost of my trip. Studying abroad sounds like a big adventure, and I am excited to have to chance to explore another part of the world and learn practical engineering knowledge at the same time.

I have always been fascinated with history, and being able to visit some of the places I have learned about would be an amazing experience. As an engineer, being able to see how engineers from other countries function will help me better understand the field of engineering at a global level.
As a Pell grant recipient, funding for a trip like this is not easy to come by for my family. Without this scholarship, it would be difficult for me to afford this trip. I believe that I will be able to make enduring relationships and gain knowledge that I can apply to the rest of my studies and, eventually, my career in
