Alcoa Foundation scholarships for talented students

The competitive Alcoa Foundation Sons and Daughters Scholarship Program rewards students who are children of Alcoa employees that demonstrate excellence in leadership, academic achievement, volunteerism and community service.

The three recipients were among hundreds of high school students globally who applied for the sought-after scholarships.

They intend to study at leading Australian universities in the fields of environmental science, civil engineering and biomedical and veterinarian sciences.

Alcoa of Australia chairman and managing director Michael Parker said the company was proud to support young people both committed to their education and striving to make a positive difference in the world.

“By providing these scholarships, we hope to inspire and help students to excel in their future studies and one day become community leaders.”
