The BioQuip Undergraduate Scholarship is offered annually by BioQuip Products (and run through the Entomological Foundation of America) to assist students in the upcoming academic year to achieve their goal of obtaining a degree in entomology or pursuing a career as an entomologist. This award is in the amount of $2000 ($1000 is given out in the fall, and $1000 in the spring).
In order to be eligible for this scholarship, applicants must:
have been enrolled as an undergraduate student in entomology at a college or university in the United States, Mexico or Canada in the fall prior to the application deadline; or if the college or university the student is attending does not offer a degree in entomology, the student must be preparing for a career as an entomologist through his/her studies. The student must also have accumulated a minimum of 90 college credit hours by September 1 following the application deadline, and either completed two junior-level entomology courses or have a research project in entomology. Preference will be given to students with demonstrated financial need.
