The Mercer University School of Engineering is pleased to announce their annual Scholarship Challenge at the Macon, Georgia campus on Saturday, November 16, 2019. The school plans to award valuable scholarships this fall to high school seniors who are interested in Mercer’s engineering, industrial management and technical communications program. More information about Mercer Engineering is available at engineering.mercer.edu.
The Scholarship Challenge is a day where the School of Engineering team meets with students to show them the campus, the labs and technology, and give them an opportunity to meet with faculty and students. A design problem or a test of math skills is used to help the team make scholarship recommendations. High school students do not need to have applied to Mercer – this event is open to any high school senior!
The process is very simple:
Students applications are due by November 7th. The team expects to offer scholarships before Christmas so that seniors can make their college plans early.
