Scholarships and Financial Aid

Each year the COE awards approximately $750,000 worth of freshmen and upperclass scholarships made possible by generous donations of alumni and friends of the college, and by the Nebraska Legislature.  To be eligible for engineering scholarships (including renewals) you must complete the general UNL Application for Scholarships by the January 15th deadline.  Eligibility for upperclass scholarships depends on a number of criteria set forth by the various donors of the scholarships.  Criteria vary widely but typically include your G.P.A., financial need, major, your home town, and any number of other specific requirements.

Internship and Research Opportunities

There are a tremendous variety of opportunities for internships and research experiences for undergraduate engineering students at UNL.  Below are a few links to websites that provide information some of those opportunities.
