Solvay USA Inc. has awarded their annual Solvay USA Inc. Engineering for Environmental Protection Scholarship for 2019 to Jaden Cleveland from Butte High School. Jaden plans to pursue an Environmental Engineering degree at Montana Tech.
In 2001, Rhodia Inc. began awarding the scholarship to future Montana Tech students who share their commitment to the environment and who are pursuing a degree in engineering at Montana Tech. Each year, one Butte High School student and one Butte Central student have the opportunity to receive the $2,000 scholarship. To apply, students are asked to complete an application form and provide an essay about "What role should engineers play in protecting and improving the environment?"
“It is exciting each year to see the enthusiasm Butte students have for the opportunity to help improve the world in which we live,” noted Dan Bersanti, Solvay Plant Manager. “Each student is keenly aware of the important roles that engineers play in all industries and want to have an impact on their future.”
Students with an interest in learning more about this scholarship opportunity should contact their school counselor or write to the following address to request more information on eligibility requirements and an application form:
