<p>AES Engineering is pleased to be able to continue offering scholarships to motivated students to help in the furthering of their education.</p>

<p>Scholarships are intended for our future leaders across a wide spectrum of fields of study. This award is available to high school seniors and all students attending a post-secondary educational facility.</p>

<p>You are not required to be taking Engineering courses to be eligible.</p>
