Gain New Skills, Increase Your Knowledge, and Prepare for Your Future.
At ASTM International, we recognize that students are our world's future technical experts and leaders. That's why we have created the wealth of information and resources contained throughout this and other sections of ASTM's Academic Outreach webpages.
ASTM understands the importance of educating the next generation on standards, and that’s why we offer several scholarships, grants, and awards.
ASTM International's Graduate Scholarship is awarded annually to up to four graduate students based on merit and available funds. Applicants must be pursuing a Master’s or Doctoral degree in a field related to ASTM’s work. Each recipient receives $10,000 to support educational expenses, including tuition, books, and fees.
ASTM International sponsors one student annually for a 10-week paid internship in the Washington Internships for Students of Engineering program. The selected intern participates in a ten-week summer program in Washington, D.C., to learn how government decisions are made on technological issues and how engineers can contribute to legislative and public policy decisions.
Presented each year and contingent upon available funds, this scholarship is available to fulltime undergraduate students completing their second/sophomore year of college (or later), or graduate students who are pursuing degrees either specializing in cement or concrete materials technology, or concrete construction. Each recipient of the Katharine and Bryant Mather Scholarship shall receive up to $7,500 to be used for their educational expenses and up to $1,500 to cover expenses to attend a Committee C09 meeting. This award is administered by ASTM Committee C09 on Concrete and Concrete Aggregates.
Student application papers showcase senior design or capstone projects that apply ASTM standards in real-world scenarios. Submissions can be made by students or their faculty mentors. Eligible projects may receive a $500 project grant, awarded to the project leader through their faculty advisor. Recipients agree to submit a final application paper for publication on the ASTM International Students and Professors website.
This award encourages women college seniors or first-year graduate students to pursue the study of Physical Metallurgy or Materials Science, with emphasis on relationship of microstructure and properties. The award was established in 1975 and is administered by ASTM Committee E04 on Metallography. The winner receives $1,000 toward the forthcoming academic year.
This award is given to encourage students to develop, present, and publish high quality research papers in the field of fracture and subcritical crack growth. The papers must be presented at meetings, symposia, workshops, and conferences sponsored or co-sponsored by ASTM Committee E08, and must be published in an ASTM publication.
The ASTM International Exo Technology Center of Excellence's annual Exo Games is a student-driven innovation initiative, simulating the challenges faced by industrial workers, first responders, and others who have manual labor as part of their job. Click here to learn more.
