Josie Rewald Memorial Community College Scholarship

In September 2016, our dear friend and SWE Life Member, Josie E. Rewald, passed away unexpectedly. Everyone who knew Josie is saddened by the passing of a wonderful leader and mentor in SWE Detroit and General Motors. Josie was committed to excellence, and her record of accomplishment during her career was stellar. She was very interested in mentoring students and early career engineers, in particular women. She served as a mentor to many at GM and SWE Detroit, as well as those in and outside of her community.

In Josie’s honor, SWE-Detroit has endowed the Society’s first scholarship specifically for community college students.

APPLICANT REQUIREMENTS

• Must be entering or enrolled in a full- or part-time community college program, studying engineering, engineering technology or computer science, OR another program intending to transfer to a degree in engineering, engineering technology, or computer science.
  • Note: a duel-enrollment high school program does not meet this requirement.
• Must be a Michigan resident.
• Must be a woman or other underrepresented gender in engineering and technology.

DEADLINE: APRIL 14, 2021
