Ellwood Group, Inc. (EGI) is pleased to announce its Annual Metallurgy Scholarship. In the interest of reaching a broader, more rounded pool of students, it has expanded the scholarship opportunities and criteria. A $15,000 scholarship will be awarded to the top candidate; and up to three additional $5,000 scholarships will be available to well qualified students. The minimum GPA requirement has been adjusted to 2.75. This scholarship is awarded on an annual basis to talented and dedicated metallurgical students to encourage their pursuit of a career within the steel and heavy metal industry. The goal is to encourage more students to choose metallurgy as their field of study and to recruit more interns and graduates into the industry, and more specifically, to EGI.

The scholarship is open to undergraduate college students in their junior year currently majoring in the field of metallurgy/material science at selected and accredited four-year colleges and universities. The scholarship includes a paid internship at an EGI business unit in the USA during the summer of 2013.

Along with the completed application, the applicant packet must be received by EGI on or before 15 October 2012. Visit www.ellwoodgroup.com for more information.
