Undergraduate Scholarship Competition for Women-USA
Women’s Transportation Seminar – Undergraduate Scholarship Competition
Deadline: November 5, 2008 (received)
Amount: $1500 (up to $4500)
WTS is an international organization of transportation professionals who are committed to
career and industry excellence. While WTS has both male and female members, one of its
primary goals is to promote professional development opportunities for women in
transportation-related careers. Through more than 30 chapters in the U.S., Canada, and
England and with a membership of over 4,000 individuals, WTS provides seminars,
newsletters, scholarships, conferences, and networking opportunities for working
professionals.
To encourage women pursuing careers in transportation-related fields in the Washington, D.C. region, our Chapter offers graduate and undergraduate scholarships. We anticipate awarding, at a minimum, one graduate scholarship and one undergraduate scholarship to outstanding students during the 2008 – 09 school year. The scholarship winners could each receive $1,500.
Our award recipients for these two scholarships will then be nominated for WTS International recognition–the Helene M. Overly Memorial Scholarship (graduate level – $6,000) and the Sharon D. Banks Memorial Scholarship (undergraduate level – $3,000). Additionally, the WTS DC Chapter will accept applications and forward one applicant to be considered for the National Louise Moritz Molitoris Leadership Fund for Undergraduates ($3,000) and for the newly created President’s Legacy Scholarship for graduate students.

3. Have a grade point average of 3.0 or higher;
