In their continued support of occupational safety, health and environmental education, San Francisco-based Bechtel Group Foundation recently contributed $10,000 to the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) Foundation toward the Bechtel Group Foundation Scholarship for Safety & Health. In 2008, this funding will support three $3,000 scholarships open to undergraduate students pursuing environmental, health and safety degrees emphasizing construction safety.
Scholarship applicants must be full-time students studying occupational safety and health with an emphasis on construction safety. Applicants must be student members of ASSE, have a GPA of 3.0 out of a 4.0 system, have a good academic standing, and be recommended by a safety faculty member. Priority will be given to students attending Murray State University in Murray, KY; Montana Tech in Butte, MT; and the University of Central Missouri in Warrensburg, MO. Eligible students can submit their scholarship applications to the ASSE Foundation from September through December.
