Three engineering students at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) have been awarded Department of Defense SMART scholarships for graduate studies.
According to CSULB, recipients of the scholarship, which has an 18 percent acceptance rate, are described as “among the most talented and innovative minds in STEM.”
The Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation (SMART) scholarship is a Department of Defense-funded science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) educational program.
The SMART scholarship provides full tuition and education-related expenses, summer internships with mentors, and employment at a Department of Defense facility after graduation.
CSULB recipients are aerospace engineering alum David Ramirez ‘20, and fourth-year student Kyle Horiuchi, who received the scholarships for their work in Assistant Professor Joseph Kalman’s Solid Propulsion and Combustion Laboratory.
Aramis Kelkelyan, a third-year mechanical engineering student, is on the Long Beach Rocketry team and works in Assistant Professor Navdeep Singh Dhillon’s STEAM-I Lab.
The SMART Scholarship application will reopen on August 01, 2021.
