BOSTON—CDM Smith continues its commitment to the long-term growth and success of future innovators and leaders in the scope of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) through the awarding of $60,000 in scholarships to eight students annually. Established more than 20 years ago, the firm’s scholarship program seeks to equip students with the resources needed to explore and expand on the limitless possibilities across the STEM disciplines and industry. 

This year’s recipients are among the best and brightest, hailing from universities across the country. Delivering solutions to the world’s toughest environmental and infrastructure challenges will continue to require new thinking and collaboration and CDM Smith is proud to support the next generation of innovators. This year’s winners-– focused on land conservation and environmental action, community impact, entrepreneurship and more—truly exemplify the drive and ingenuity that will continue to shape the STEM world for the better. 

Scholarship categories include merit based as well as awards targeted to women, histor­i­cally margin­al­ized communities and individuals facing hardships that might impact their education. “Our scholarship recipients represent the future of engineering, the architects of tomorrow's world. Our commitment to and our unwavering support for these brilliant students underscore CDM Smith's dedication to fostering innovation and supporting the next generation of STEM leaders,” said CDM Smith Chairman and CEO Tim Wall.
