UNC Highway Safety Research Center Establishes Scholarship
May 01, 2006 11:39 AM
The UNC Highway Safety Research Center (HSRC) announces the first annual scholarship for graduate students interested in pursuing a career in highway safety.
The $1,000 scholarship is available to a full-time graduate student with career goal emphasis on transportation safety who will be enrolled in the fall of 2006 at any of the University of North Carolina campuses.
“The field of transportation safety is currently going through a transition period that has created many new career opportunities,” said HSRC Interim Director David Harkey. “We hope this scholarship will serve to encourage more students to pursue a career in one of the many disciplines of highway safety.”
Candidates will be evaluated based on academic performance, career goals, extracurricular and professional activities, work experience and a 1,000-word essay on a current highway safety issue.
The scholarship will officially be awarded to the graduate student finalist during HSRC’s 40th anniversary dinner event scheduled for Thursday, October 5, 2006.
The deadline for applying is July 1, 2006, and the application can be downloaded at www.hsrc.unc.edu/scholarship/ |
