Graduate Scholarships Program
The Society of Naval
Architects and Marine Engineers's Graduate Scholarships Program
bestows multiple scholarships in honor of living and deceased SNAME
Members. Applicants use a single application to apply for all
scholarships within the program. The Wehausen Graduate Scholarship
utilizes a seperate application (see below).
Since its inception in 1933, the SNAME Graduate Scholarship
Program has awarded millions of dollars of scholarship awards to
students in the naval architecture, marine engineering, ocean
engineering and marine industry related fields. North American
applicants must study in approved institutions in the U.S., Canada, or
abroad, while non-U.S./Canadian graduate applicants must study in
approved U.S. or Canadian schools. Applicants must not receive their
Masters Degree prior to October 1 of the year in which they are applying
for their scholarship. Generally, applicants are not expected to
receive their Master's Degree prior to April 15 of the academic year in
which graduate study is undertaken.
Multiple awards of up to $20,000 are made annually, seven of which are designated as follows:
#1 - The Wilbur N. Landers Scholar
#2 - The William M. Kennedy Scholar
#3 - The Tommy L. Richards Scholar
#4 - The Alan C. McClure Scholar
