Kiewit Scholars Application Form

Before You Apply

1. AI Policy

   We ask you to refrain from all AI use as you craft your responses. We want to hear your authentic thoughts and voice! The content matters to us more than perfect polish. Do your best to have clear writing and use spell check, knowing our goal is to get to know you, not "grade" your writing ability.

2. Professional Interests

   We ask all students who apply have a genuine interest in the building and construction industry, as they will benefit the most from the speakers and programming over the four years. Additionally, know the guaranteed Kiewit internship offer will be in one of Kiewit's markets, so ensure your professional interests align. Reach out to Bonnie Shuda at bonnieshuda@unl.edu if you have questions.

3. Cohort Programs

   The College of Engineering has different signature cohort programs, including Kiewit Scholars and the Peter Kiewit Engineering Academy. We welcome students to apply for all programs for which they meet the requirements, however, we ask you familiarize yourself with the differences in order to submit your best work to each.
