Annual Student Awards

Scholarship Opportunities

The Mountain District does not offer individual scholarships for students at this time. However, ITE does provide other opportunities for high school and/or university students to apply for scholarships.

• Section Scholarships: Many ITE Sections within the Mountain District offer scholarships to students within their Section. Please contact your Section’s Student Chapter Liaison to learn more.
• Mountain District DEI Scholarships: The ITE Mountain District Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee offers scholarships to help students and younger members attend the Mountain District Annual Meeting. More information is available on the DEI Committee page.
• Diversity Scholars Program: The purpose of this program is to encourage the participation of underrepresented populations in the transportation profession and to support increased diversity at the undergraduate level. Diversity in transportation is critical as practitioners seek to fully understand the needs of all communities in the development of equitable mobility improvements. See the Diversity Scholars Program homepage for more information.
