The Diversity in Structural Engineering Scholarship Program was established by the NCSEA Foundation to award funds to structural engineering students who identify as historically underrepresented students in structural engineering (including but not limited to Black/African American, Native/Indigenous American, Hispanic/Latino or Spanish, Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and other people of color, those with disabilities, veterans, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community).

Scholarships are presented annually to junior college students, undergraduate students, and graduate students pursuing degrees in structural engineering at accredited institutions in the United States. The Diversity in Structural Engineering Scholarship Program has awarded more than $130,000 to scholarship recipients since the program’s inception in 2021.
