Lack of funds is one of the most challenging reasons facing Hispanic students pursuing their degrees. So SHPE offers thousands of reasons to ensure their members DO reach graduation – over a million to be exact. With over 1,500 scholarships awarded since 2018 totaling over $5,000,000, SHPE is actively narrowing the gap in the Hispanic STEM education pipeline.

ScholarSHPE provides opportunities for:

• Graduating high school seniors beginning a STEM undergraduate career at a community college or 4-year university.
• Undergraduate students pursuing a degree in STEM at any stage of their undergraduate career. Students must be enrolled full-time at a community college or 4-year university.
• Students or professionals pursuing technical certificates or graduate-level professional education that increase their professional competencies with select institutions.
• Graduate students pursuing a master’s or doctoral STEM degree program at an accredited university.
