This scholarship program provides up to eighteen need-based scholarships to an integrated community of academically talented MS and PhD graduate students who are educated in the economic, social, and environmental pillars of sustainability, well prepared to transfer research techniques and knowledge from their different graduate perspectives.Engaging women and underrepresented groups in engineering builds additional capacity in these fields that are critical to advancing sustainability goals. The project explicitly provides scholarships to recruit, educate, and retain students into STEM fields (including underrepresented groups). It will facilitate knowledge sharing among MS and PhD graduate students and their faculty advisors. This project focuses student and faculty educational efforts on some of the most pressing challenges facing our global society, and catalyzes the development of the next generation of engineers with global awareness and the skills necessary to lead true change by engineering for a better future.

该奖学金计划向学术优秀的硕士和博士研究生组成的综合社区提供多达十八项基于需求的奖学金，他们接受过可持续发展的经济、社会和环境支柱教育，做好了从不同研究生转移研究技术和知识的准备让女性和代表性不足的群体参与工程可以在这些领域建立额外的能力，这对于推进可持续发展目标至关重要。该项目明确提供奖学金来招募、教育和留住学生进入 STEM 领域（包括代表性不足的群体）。它将促进硕士和博士研究生及其导师之间的知识共享。该项目将学生和教师的教育工作重点放在全球社会面临的一些最紧迫的挑战上，并促进下一代工程师的发展，使他们具有全球意识和必要的技能，通过工程引领真正的变革，创造更美好的未来。
