Applicants must submit a resume demonstrating work that has been done on industry-related activities.

Successful students will be notified in June and must attend the IBTTA Foundation Annual Meeting in Austin, Texas to accept their award.

The scheme is administered by Scholarship America, and applications can be made here.
