Aviation Scholarship

1. Pursuing, or have recently received, an undergraduate degree in a field applicable to airports. Because airport development includes a wide range of skills and careers, applicants will be considered with pursuits or degrees applicable to the following: planning, environmental, engineering, architecture, construction, education, business, marketing, communication, equipment, law, services, airports, suppliers, advertisers, and concessions. 2. Be less than two (2) years from receiving an undergraduate (bachelor’s) degree or no more than two (2) years after receiving an undergraduate (bachelor’s) degree. 3. Agree to attend and participate in the full ACC/AAAE Airport Planning, Design and Construction Symposium. The chance to attend the Symposium is a cornerstone of this grant and is expected that the awardee will make every effort to participate in the conference for the full duration, attending sessions and networking with other attendees. It is possible that specific expectations will be outlined for your efforts at the conference; for example, meeting and documenting discussions with the exhibitors who are present to share knowledge about the industry. These expectations could involve a follow-up after the conference concludes. ACC may provide a mentor, or mentors, to guide you through the conference and support your networking. 4. Possess a vested interest in pursuing a career in airport development or airport development-related services and demonstrate this interest in the essay portion of the application (for example, an internship, study, work experience, or other practical ties to airports). 5. Complete all components of the application. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
