Clark Scholars Eligibility and Requirements

The A. James Clark Scholars Program at Stevens Institute of Technology was made possible thanks to a generous gift by the A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation to honor the legacy of the late A. James Clark, a noted engineer, philanthropist and founder of the Maryland-based Clark Construction Group LLC, one of the nation’s leading privately-held construction companies.

Clark Scholars Eligibility

The Clark Scholars Program is an invitation-only scholarship program for exceptional, high-performing students who are traditionally underrepresented in the engineering fields and exhibit a passion for “making a difference.” Invitations will be extended at the time of admission. There are no additional application requirements, and the program will only be available to incoming full-time, first-year students. Clark Scholars will be selected based on:

  • High academic achievement

  • Demonstrated leadership

  • Community involvement

Program Requirements

Clark Scholars are expected to remain active participants in all required Clark Scholars programming throughout their undergraduate experience and must:

  • Pursue a rigorous curriculum of engineering, computer science or cybersecurity

  • Maintain a 3.2 GPA

  • Take a minimum of two business classes

  • Volunteer in community service activities
