Calling all female electrical engineers!

The National Spectrum Consortium (NSC) is pleased to announce the Women in Spectrum Scholarship program. NSC intends to name at least 5 Spectrum Scholars during the inaugural year of this program (2022-2023). With this program, the NSC is hoping to further develop the pipeline of talented women engineers entering fields related to spectrum and communications. This effort is designed to encourage women scholars to continue to pursue careers in spectrum research and development.

The Executive Committee of the NSC will select women as Spectrum Scholars who are excellent incoming first-year or current students majoring in electrical engineering at an ABET-accredited university in the United States. Eligible candidates for the program should also have a direct family connection to an NSC member organization.

Spectrum Scholars will be awarded a $1,500 scholarship as well as up to $1,000 travel stipend to attend the 2022 IEEE MILCOM conference for an awards ceremony. In addition, Spectrum Scholars will be invited to connect with NSC Executive Committee members and others for mentorship opportunities.

To be considered as a Spectrum Scholar, please fill out the application form below. Applications are due on September 16th, 2022, and an announcement of the winners will be made at the end of September followed by an awards ceremony at the 2022 MILCOM conference, November 28 – December 2, 2022.

Female electrical engineering majors at any ABET-accredited university are strongly encouraged to apply. Selected Spectrum Scholars will win $1,500 and a travel stipend. Apply here by September 16th:
