Tau Beta Pi Scholarship

"The Scholarship Program was established in 1998 with five awards named in honor of former Secretary-Treasurer Emeritus Robert H. Nagel, P.E., NY D ’39. Since then, awards of $1,000 per semester have been made to 2,029 Scholars for their senior year of full-time engineering study. Tau Beta Pi Scholarships are awarded on the competitive criteria of high scholarship, campus leadership and service, and promise of future contributions to the engineering profession. All Scholars are members of Tau Beta Pi. Scholarships are named for other members or corporations, and their descriptions and history are available at www.tbp.org."

Tau Beta Pi Fellowship

"Winner of the ASEE Corporate Member Council’s 2009 “Excellence in Engineering Collaboration Award,” the Fellowship Program is Tau Beta Pi’s project for the advancement of engineering education and the profession. It is a time-proven idea that originated by Tau Beta Pi in the honor society field. The plan was adopted by the 1928 Convention as a result of the recommendation and labors of President A.D. Moore. Since the beginning, the purpose has been to finance, for a select group of members chosen for merit and need, a year of graduate study at the colleges of their choice. Tau Beta Pi Fellows are free to do graduate work in any field that will enable them to contribute to the engineering profession. The only specific requirement of awardees is to prepare and submit a report at the completion of the fellowship year summarizing their work. Fellows receive $10,000 for their advanced study. A total of 1,554 Fellowships and more than $6,260,000 in stipends have been given since the program began."
