There are many great scholarships for engineering and land surveying students offered this year through the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) at the national level as well as through the American Council of Engineering Companies of Massachusetts Education Corporation (ACEC/MA EC) for Massachusetts students enrolled anywhere in the country.
- The Application deadline for ACEC/Massachusetts Education Corporation scholarships on the ACEC portal is January 22, 2025 at 5 pm.

For 2025, we are using an online portal through the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) Research Institute in Washington DC. Students can apply directly on the portal for ACEC Scholarships and/or for the ACEC/MA EC Presidents’ Scholarship, the Nitsch Engineering-Judith Nitsch Scholarship, and other Massachusetts scholarships on the portal.
Students then may be directed to apply for a range of other national scholarships based on financial need or their areas of concentration. The portal streamlines the process for applying for a range of scholarships.
We’re excited that NCEES, the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying, is working with the ACEC Research Institute to award 1 additional scholarship to a student in each state this year.
