ASA Graduate Scholarship

The purpose of the ASA Graduate Scholarship Program is to attract, identify, and assist outstanding graduate students pursuing careers within the field of concrete with a significant interest in the shotcrete process.

The ASA Graduate Scholarships are available to applicants who have been accepted into a graduate program in the field of concrete at the time of application to an accredited college or university within the United States or at Laval University in Canada. To receive consideration for an ASA Graduate Scholarship, the applicant needs only to submit one application. Based on essays, submitted data, and references, the ASA Scholarship Committee will select scholarship recipients who appear to have the strongest combination of interest and potential for professional success in the shotcrete industry.

Two $3,000 awards are available through the American Shotcrete Association (ASA) for the upcoming academic year. One scholarship will be awarded to a graduate student attending an accredited college or university within the United States and the second scholarship will be awarded to a graduate student attending Laval University in Canada. Each ASA Graduate Scholarship award consists of a stipend of $3,000 and is paid in two installments directly to the student’s educational institution.

Applicants must be a full-time first- or second-year graduate student during the entire scholarship year. Course work during a summer session will count toward the degree year. Applications will be accepted from anywhere in the world but graduate study must take place in the United States or at Laval University in Canada during the award year.
