AISC Campus Connection Grants

AISC offers an exciting opportunity to have high-quality speaking engagements on your campus! The AISC Education Foundation provides funding in the form of reimbursement grants to encourage university faculty and AISC Student Clubs to hold on-campus, in-person speaking engagements with inspiring leaders of the structural steel industry.

Speaking engagement topics should be based on a session the speaker has given at a previous NASCC: The Steel Conference.This is the application for the current and upcoming academic year for Campus Connection Grants. A maximum of $1,200 will be awarded for successful grant proposals. Applications are reviewed on a rolling, first-come, first-served basis and will be approved as funding allows.
