About the Scholarships
After receiving applications from 57 impressive candidates, the Michigan Council of Women in Technology Foundation provided seven deserving women in various stages of their academic or professional careers with laptop stipends and scholarships at its annual gala held May 5 at the Birmingham Country Club. The level of gender disparity in the high technology industry coupled with the overall decline in university enrollments in technical fields drives the MCWT Foundation’s efforts to help women pursue their educational goals, gain a competitive skill set and become leaders in Michigan’s workplace. The organization has awarded $415,000 in scholarships and grants in the last eight years.
