The AFCEA (Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association) 
Educational Foundation is an independent non-profit tax-exempt public charity dedicated to providing educational incentives, opportunities and assistance for people engaged in information management, communications and intelligence efforts and fostering excellence in education particularly in the “hard science” disciplines.
The mission of the Foundation is to support development of engineers and technical personnel through selective motivational awards, prizes and scholarships, grants for educational activities of unique and high value and professional educational programs.
The AFCEA Educational Foundation will offer scholarships of $5,000 to students actively pursuing an undergraduate or graduate education degree for the purpose of teaching STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) subjects at a U.S. middle or secondary school.
At least 30 scholarships will be awarded annually. The scholarships are made possible by a generous contribution from AFCEA International.
Eligibility: Undergraduate candidates must be a U.S. citizen, attending an accredited college or university in the United States as a traditional student and majoring in secondary education for the purpose of teaching STEM subjects in a U.S. middle or secondary school.
Undergraduate applications will be accepted from current sophomore and junior students – minimum second-year students please.
Graduate candidates must be a U.S. citizen and currently enrolled in at least two (semester-equivalent) classes at an accredited U.S. college or university.
A minimum overall GPA of 3.0 is required.
In addition to the STEM Teacher Scholarship, each graduating STEM Scholarship Teacher will receive a $1,000 AFCEA Science Teaching Tools grant per year for 3 years, on the condition they remain teaching a STEM subject. Grants can be used for a variety of purposes including: purchase of STEM-focused classroom supplies, purchase of hardware/software, or to support STEM extra-curricular activities and clubs.
