AFCEA Scholarships for Graduating High School Seniors
The Tokyo Chapter of the Armed Forces Communications & Electronics Association (AFCEA) awards scholarships each year to outstanding high school seniors. These scholarships are available to students who intend to pursue a degree in one of the following areas: computer science, electrical engineering, software engineering, information technology, math, physics, or a related field of study. Award of these scholarships is a means of providing financial assistance to individuals who will become our nation’s future scientists, engineers and technicians. For 2009, the Tokyo Chapter again intends to award a number of non-renewable scholarships of $2,000 to outstanding high school seniors who will be pursuing a degree in an approved field.
AFCEA is a professional association chartered in Washington, D.C. As a patriotic, education oriented, nonprofit, technical society, AFCEA's mission is to: (1) promote cooperation between industry and government in developing effective information technology capabilities in the areas of Command, Control, Communications, Computer and Intelligence (C4I) systems; (2) foster strong Armed Forces and information technology organizations and; (3) contribute to the professional development of those serving in information technology and C4I career fields. Through these activities, AFCEA’s goal is to further the security and military preparedness of the United States, its allies, and the free world.
