AFCEA Education Scholarships for Teaching Science, Technology, Engineering
and Mathematics (STEM)
The AFCEA Educational Foundation will offer scholarships of $5,000 to students
actively pursuing an undergraduate or graduate education degree for the
purpose of teaching STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics)
subjects at a U.S. middle or secondary school.
At least 35 scholarships will be awarded annually. The scholarships are made
possible by a generous contribution from AFCEA International.
Eligibility: Undergraduate candidates must be a U.S. citizen, attending an
accredited college or university in the United States as a traditional student
and majoring in secondary education for the purpose of teaching STEM
subjects in a U.S. middle or secondary school. Undergraduate applications will
be accepted from current sophomore and junior students - minimum second-
year students please. Graduate candidates must be a U.S. citizen and currently
enrolled in at least two (semester-equivalent) classes at an accredited U.S.
college or university.
A minimum overall GPA of 3.0 is required.
In addition to the STEM Teacher Scholarship, each graduating AFCEA STEM
Teacher Scholar will receive a $1,000 AFCEA Science Teaching Tools grant per
year for 3 years, on the condition they remain teaching a STEM subject. Grants
can be used for a variety of purposes including: purchase of STEM-focused
classroom supplies, purchase of hardware/software, or to support STEM extra-
curricular activities and clubs.
Applications Deadline: June 10
