Walter M. and Doris H. Maclean Graduate Scholarship

The Walter M. and Doris H. Maclean Graduate Scholarship is open to applicants worldwide who are members in good standing of SNAME looking to pursue studies in Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, Ocean Engineering, and related subject areas. If the applicant already has a Master of Engineering degree and wishes to continue graduate study of Ship and Offshore Structures, the applicant would remain eligible for consideration. Awards are made for one year of study leading to a Doctoral or Master's Degree in ship and offshore structures, or a Master's Degree in naval architecture, marine engineering, ocean engineering, or other fields directly related to the maritime industry. Applicants must receive their graduate degree after April 15 of the academic year for which they are applying for their scholarship. Three letters of reference must be submitted. One letter must be from a Faculty Member of the applicant's university, who has had the applicant as a student in their course. Also, that letter or one of the other two letters of recommendation must be from a current SNAME member. Although applicants are not required to provide GRE scores, they will be at a disadvantage if they do not do so, regardless of graduate school admission requirements. GRE scores count as much as 15 percent of the application ranking for award consideration. Applications must be received prior to February 1 with all supporting documentation by February 15. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Society of Naval Architects & Marine Engineers for more information.
