STEM Bridge Scholarship Award Recipients

Each year the Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium awards a number of undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships to the best and brightest college and university students from WSGC member and affiliate member institutions. Renewable awards for the STEM Bridge Scholarship are based on a commitment to space-related studies and an indication of an on-going or a proposed program of undergraduate space-related studies by undergraduate students identified as a member of a federally recognized minority group. WSGC is pleased to announce and congratulate the following students on their WSGC STEM Bridge Scholarships.
