MINNEAPOLIS, MN - The SMTA is currently seeking student applications for two funds, each with a deadline of Apr. 24.

The $8,000 Charles Hutchins Educational Grant, cosponsored by the SMTA and CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY, was established in memory of past SMTA president Dr. Charles Hutchins and has awarded more than $100,000 since 1998.

Eligible applicants must be full-time, graduate-level students pursuing a degree and working on thesis research in electronics assembly, electronics packaging, or a related field. To complete the application, visit https://www.smta.org/hutchins/hutchins.cfm.

The $3,000 JoAnn Stromberg Student Leadership Scholarship, given in honor of the nearly 30 years of service dedicated by former executive administrator JoAnn Stromberg, was established following her retirement in 2015. The purpose of this scholarship is to encourage students to take on more leadership opportunities and strengthen the connection between students and the electronics industry.

The Stromberg Scholarship is awarded annually to a full-time student pursuing a degree in electronics and actively involved in the SMTA. The scholarship is intended for the purchase of technical books and research materials, for participation in conferences related to electronics assembly and packaging, and for living expenses, if necessary.

To complete the application, visit https://www.smta.org/scholarship/.

All required materials are due Apr. 24. The Grant Committee reviews qualified applications and makes their recommendation to the SMTA board of directors.

Winners will be announced at the SMTA International Conference in Rosemont, IL, Sept. 27-Oct. 1.
