The first scholarship assists students who are pursuing an undergraduate degree in technical communication and the second assists students who are pursuing a graduate degree in technical communication. Students applying for one of these scholarships are expected to be able to demonstrate their focus on topics related to technical editing through their academic studies, current jobs, special projects, or undergraduate/graduate program.
