According to IEEE PES, “power and energy engineers work with some of today’s most exciting technologies, developing solutions to problems that affect our lives and lifestyles. The PESÂ Scholarship Plus Initiative provides scholarships and real world experience to undergraduates who are interested in power and energy engineering careers. Our undergraduate engineering scholarships aim to accomplish this goal by attracting highly qualified engineering students to the field. These students are the very individuals who will one day develop new green technologies, build the smart grid and change the way we generate and utilize power.”
