“To have the opportunity to contribute to the technological advancement of society and have my name attached to important projects is a great motivation to come into work with energy each day. I am especially interested in the field of aerospace design; where projects contribute to the fast movement of people on earth or unlock the answers to mankind's curiosities about space.”
Requirements
1
All applicants must write a 700-word essay, detailing why you think you should receive this scholarship. We want to learn all about your academic achievements, your drive to succeed as an engineer, your passion for the field, your personal achievements, your educational expectations for the future and what you think the next ten years of your professional life will look like!

Optional: Your engineering innovation is something we crave to learn more about. Using our electric linear actuators and corresponding products as your basis, we want you to describe (or even better, design!) an inventive application. The more inventive and creative, the better! These don’t have to be monumental, ground-breaking technologies – they can be as simple as you like. Points are solely scored for creative-thinking and inventiveness.
3
Applicants must be enrolled in the September 2022 semester at a recognized Canadian or American post-secondary college or university. This must be a full-time engineering course.
