Scholarship Committee
Edward J. Cox Memorial Scholarship
Background:
The Edward J. Cox Memorial Transportation Scholarship Award is presented annually by the Indiana Section of the Institute of Transportation Engineers. The main purpose of the award is to encourage students to consider Transportation Engineering/Planning in their studies and career aspirations, and to provide partial financial support for tuition and fees to students who have demonstrated an interest and are likely to work in the transportation field. The Scholarship consists of a minimum of one annual award of at least $5,000.
The Scholarship Award was formerly known as the ITE Indiana Section Transportation Scholarship Award, but the name was changed in 1999 to honor the late Edward J. Cox. Ed was an active member of the ITE Indiana Section, serving on both the Section Executive Board and the Education-Scholarship Committee at the time of his sudden passing in December of 1998.
Eligibility:
To be eligible for the Scholarship, the applicant must be either a full-time undergraduate or graduate student enrolled at an Indiana college or university, with career goal emphasis on Transportation Engineering/Planning/Construction Management.
Selection Criteria:
Each prospective applicant is required to fill out an official application, which includes current educational information (coursework, GPA, etc.), employment history, extracurricular activities, and a letter of recommendation from one or more faculty members.
The scholarship bylaws are available here.
