The National Tooling & Machining Foundation scholarships provide financial support to students advancing their education and pursuing careers in manufacturing. In 2018, the NTMF granted $42,500 in scholarships, double what was granted in 2017. We look forward to receiving even more applications in 2019.
Do you know a deserving student in your shop, your community, your Chapter or your family that is pursuing their education in manufacturing?
We need your help to engage and recruit qualified applicants for the Brock Babb and Edwin Vobeda Scholarships for 2019.
Students that apply for either scholarship must have a letter of recommendation from an NTMA member in good standing. Please share the scholarship information below with your employees, interns, co-ops, and others in your community to help connect people with financial assistance for their educational pursuits in the machining, tool and die, and other related industries.
