Civil engineering students can get help paying for college, as well as a paid job, from the Indiana Department of Transportation. INDOT’s scholarship program gives students $3,125 per semester for up to five years for educational costs, fees, and books. In return, they’ll be expected to work for INDOT full-time during summer breaks and for a certain amount of time after graduation. Funding for the program comes from the federal government.
To qualify, INDOT says students must be accepted or enrolled full-time in one of the state’s certified engineering schools, such as Purdue University, Valparaiso University, or the University of Notre Dame. Applications for the 2020-2021 school year are due by December 31.
