On Tuesday, March 26, 2019 at The Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville, TN, the NACE Foundation recognized its 2019 scholarship recipients during the Scholarship Awards Ceremony. Recipients were chosen by selection committees based on their academic excellence, work experience, professional activities, and commitment to the corrosion industry.
The NACE Foundation also distributed more than $43,000 in travel assistance to 135 students attending CORROSION 2019 to present their research in the Student Poster Session or technical program.
The NACE Foundation, now in its 15th year of awarding scholarships, is able to recognize these deserving students each year thanks to individual and corporate donations, as well as the generous financial support from NACE sections and areas.
