We know that during this time in our nation that many of us have been met with unexpected challenges, so it gives Valero great pleasure to announce that we are awarding talented first-year students (freshmen) a $1,500 scholarship to assist in fulfilling their educational goals. The Valero scholarships target minority students pursuing undergraduate degrees in engineering; particularly, students with a passion for Chemical, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or Pre-Engineering.
Students who are awarded the scholarship will attend Valero’s Minority Engineering Summit on May 18-21, 2021, in San Antonio, TX. This all-expenses-paid developmental opportunity will take place at Valero Headquarters, and consist of four (4) days of learning, exploration, networking, volunteerism, and a site visit to a Valero Refinery. However, if we are still under COVID guidelines, don’t fret, we are implementing a Plan B for a virtual event.
