MHTF Scholarship Program
The Minnesota High Tech Foundation (MHTF) will award scholarships to undergraduate students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) disciplines. These awards include six $2,000 scholarships and three $10,000 awards. The purpose of the scholarship program is to strengthen Minnesota's future technology workforce by providing financial support to undergraduate students of accredited, Minnesota-based higher education institutions pursuing careers in STEM or STEM teaching. These esteemed awards provide a unique opportunity for students to meet Minnesota business leaders and network into future careers and internships.
The $2,000 scholarships are supported entirely by the MHTF. These awards will be presented in front of over 1,000 technology executives gathered to celebrate innovation and technology at the Minnesota Teke Awards in November 2010. The $10,000 scholarships are sponsored by Minnesota businesses and will be paid in equal dividends as part of a multi-year program. Students receiving the $10,000 awards will be recognized at the Minnesota High Tech Association (MHTA) Spring Conference where more than 500 companies will gather to share information on current technology trends and the global economy in the spring of 2011.
