I'm interested in pursuing a degree in chemical engineering but, as an international student, I'm worried about the cost. Does anyone know of any good scholarships that could help out in this field?
There are several scholarships available for international students in the field of chemical engineering.
The Fulbright Foreign Student Program is one option. It's a prestigious program that offers scholarships for international students to study in the United States in almost any field, including chemical engineering. Recipients of this scholarship often receive full funding for their studies, which would cover tuition, books, and living expenses.
The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) also offers a number of scholarships for students majoring in chemical engineering. Specific scholarships, amounts, and eligibility criteria can vary, so it's best to check their website for the most current information.
Additionally, many universities offer scholarships to international students based on academic merit or financial need. For instance, some top-tier universities offer generous financial aid packages to international students that are nearly equivalent to those offered to domestic students.
Lastly, you may want to look at the website of Appily, where you can find more scholarships that are catered towards international students. Remember to be diligent and timely in your applications, as competition can be keen for these types of scholarships.
