Roger Dorton Memorial Scholarship for Women in Engineering

A scholarship, valued up to $1,200, will be provided annually to a full-time undergraduate student who identifies as a woman enrolled in Year One of any program in the Faculty of Engineering, wherein women are underrepresented, with preference to Civil Engineering. This fund is made possible by donations from friends and family in memory of Roger Dorton, a renowned engineer in the field of structural engineering, to inspire women to pursue studies in Engineering. The scholarship is an entrance award designed to support women entering engineering programs at the University of Waterloo. Selection is based on academic performance, the Admissions Information Form (AIF), and an online video interview. The scholarship is available to both Canadian/permanent resident students and international students entering eligible engineering programs including Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Geological Engineering, Management Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Nanotechnology Engineering, and Software Engineering.
