National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering (NACME) Scholarships

The National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering (NACME) is arguably the largest provider of college scholarships for underrepresented minorities pursuing degrees at schools of engineering. NACME defines underrepresented minorities as individuals who self-identify as Black/African American, Latinx/Hispanic American, Native/American Indian. Our mission is to enrich society with an American workforce that champions diversity in STEM by increasing the number of underrepresented minorities in engineering and computer science.

NACME partners with like-minded entities to provide scholarships, resources, and opportunities for high-achieving, underrepresented minority college students pursuing careers in engineering and computer science. By supporting their academic endeavors and professional development, NACME produces well-qualified candidates that meet today’s urgent hiring demands for more diverse STEM talent.

NACME is responsible for over $5 million in scholarships awarded annually to underrepresented minority (URM) students. NACME supports approximately 1,000 underrepresented minority engineering and computer students annually.
