Amazon Future Engineer Scholarship

The Amazon Future Engineer Scholarship program provides financial support and career development opportunities for high school seniors planning to pursue undergraduate degrees in computer science and related fields. Recipients can receive up to $40,000 in scholarship funding ($10,000 per year for up to four years) to cover their unmet financial need for college expenses. The program uniquely combines financial assistance with professional experience by offering scholarship recipients an opportunity to complete a paid summer internship at Amazon. During the internship, students work embedded on software engineering teams, building projects with real impact on Amazon customers and shipping production-level code. Interns gain exposure to groundbreaking technologies including Amazon Web Services, seller logistics, and the Amazon retail platform. Beyond financial support and internship experience, the program provides mentorship, networking opportunities through fireside chats with senior leaders, deep dives from technology teams, and dedicated career mentors. Students build connections with a cohort of peers from similar backgrounds, creating a supportive community throughout their academic and early professional journey.
