MSE Student Wins Metal Treating Institute Scholarship

MSE student Eric Roth has been awarded the Metal Treating Institute Educational Foundation's Founders Scholarship, which is valued at $15,000. 

“I am so grateful for this fantastic scholarship, and I appreciate all that MTI does to help launch young engineers into the thermal-processing industry," Roth said in an article for Industrial Heating. "With the assistance of the scholarship award, I plan to finish my degree in the next nine months and do my very best to build a career that commits to the growth of the heat-treating industry.”

The MTI Educational Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization created to support education, research, professional development programs, publications, public relations efforts, and any other activities proposed by the Metal Treating Institute and allied organizations.

“With the long-term labor shortage that everyone is facing, the Foundation is proud to be able to award nine more students financial resources that can help them further their education and attract them to our industry,” said Buster Crossley, Educational Foundation Chair. “It is exciting to see the emails of appreciation from them knowing that MTI is making a difference in their lives and hopefully attracting them to work in the industry after graduation.”
