Packaging Education Scholarship Fund
The Institute of Packaging Professionals is proud to offer five $2,500 academic scholarships to recognize exceptional college students headed for a career in packaging. One scholarship will be awarded to an international packaging student.
The scholarships have been created to support packaging education and to raise awareness of packaging as a career choice. The scholarships are funded by founding supporters, including the IoPP Chemical Packaging Committee as well as the Cascade, Central Ohio, Cincinnati, Chicago, Minnesota, Missouri-Gateway, and Tejas IoPP chapters and IoPP benefactor companies. The 2012 Annual IoPP Golf Outing also generated significant donations to support this program.
As an added bonus, the top talent identified through this program will be shared with IoPP Benefactor companies as a recruiting tool for their organizations. This could be that post-graduation foot in the door that jump-starts your career.
