Students and Faculty
The AIST Foundation awards more than US$700,000 annually in scholarships and grants, and offers a growing number of programs to help students and faculty become further involved in the iron and steel industry. Built on continual technical evolution and a worldwide network, the steel industry offers students and faculty many exciting opportunities.
For students, these opportunities include membership in AIST and access to student chapters, internships and scholarships. The Steel to Students program offers increased exposure to AIST programming such as Member Chapter events, and attending Technology Training conferences by offering training and travel funds. Students are actively engaged through various Foundation-sponsored contests that offer attractive prizes.
The AIST Foundation also offers a number of faculty grants and programs to help build a closer working relationship with the steel industry.
