Aspen Announces 2024 Diversity in the Environmental Profession - Student Scholarship Opportunity

Aspen Environmental Group supports students who are actively engaged in the pursuit of a career in a field with an environmental emphasis. As part of our support efforts, we are offering scholarships to support college students interested in environmental related topics. Aspen’s scholarship is intended to promote and encourage diversity within our profession.  

Scholarship Award

The monetary awards will be up to $3,000 per scholarship recipient (with a total of $5,000 awarded). The award can be used for educational pursuits including tuition, books, school supplies, research, etc. Recipients will receive a check in their name from Aspen Environmental Group. Each scholarship recipient will also be invited to attend a virtual lunch with Aspen’s senior environmental staff to learn about their careers and establish professional connections.
