Engineering & Physical Science Scholarship
For girls drawn to how things work: robotics, energy, space, chemistry, physics.
For girls who take things apart, wonder how bridges stand up, follow rocket launches, or want to work on climate and energy. Robotics teams, science fairs, and backyard experiments all count.
Past-style uses: robotics competition fees, a 3D printer filament budget, a summer engineering program, lab-kit materials, calculator or CAD software.
