New Scholarship for Biomedical Engineering Undergraduates

The Whitaker International Program recently established a new undergraduate grant for biomedical engineering and bioengineering students studying abroad. Up to $7,500 will be awarded to students participating in semester-long programs and $10,000 for year-long studies. This new undergraduate program was created with the goal of increasing the number of biomedical engineers studying abroad. Students who apply must demonstrate a financial need for support to participate in study abroad. Priority will be given to those who study in non-traditional locations.

Study Abroad Scholarships

The Study Abroad Office is thrilled to announce the first ever Drexel Study Abroad Scholarship. This scholarship will be awarded to several Drexel study abroad students each term. Winners will be selected based on criteria such as financial need, campus involvement, program duration, and location. Details and scholarship requirements will be accessible via students’ online application system. Students applying for summer and fall 2011 programs are welcome to apply!

Congratulations to Drexel students who have won external study abroad scholarships this year!
