Twenty-five scholarships are available for undergraduate students majoring in engineering and science disciplines. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and administered by Oak Ridge Associated Universities, the scholarships are designated for those students interested in pursuing careers in environmental restoration or waste management (ER/WM).

Applicants must be U.S. citizens and currently pursuing an Associate of Science of Bachelor of Science degree full-time. The Environmental Restoration/Waste Management Scholarship Program includes full payment of tuition and fees at a DOE-approved institution, a $600 per month stipend, and a three month practical assignment at a DOE facility engaged in environmental restoration and waste management.

Selection is based on academic performance, recommendations, background and a statement of career goals by the applicant. The competition is nationwide, although four-year institutions and two-year institutions will compete in separate categories.

Scholarship applications are being taken through Jan. 28, 1991, and awards will be announced in May.
