The Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR) Foundation awards up to four-cash scholarships each year to individuals who are interested in the study of exhibitions and events management.
If within a hospitality program, the focus of study should be the exhibitions and events industry as determined by the review of the submitted official transcripts. Scholarships of up to $5,000 each will be awarded to students attending any accredited college, university or junior college who meet the criteria outlined on the application.
Scholarship recipients will be considered for an internship at Expo! Expo! IAEE’s Annual Meeting & Exhibition, scheduled for Dec. 1-3 in Baltimore, Md. Although this is a non-paid internship, the Foundation will provide travel and hotel room accommodations.
The application deadline for scholarships for the 2015-2016 school years is June 1. All applicants will be notified by email on the outcome of their application no later than August 1.
