Thermo Fisher Scientific, a long-term partner of the Knight Campus Graduate Internship Program, has committed $20,000/year over the next 5 years to support Inclusion & Diversity scholarships. The scholarships, which range from $500 to $5000, are awarded to students who have demonstrated a commitment to improving DEI or whose pursuit of a STEM degree has been impacted by facets of DEI. The 2021 gift follows an initial $100,000 commitment from Thermo Fisher Scientific in 2018.
The gift pushes the program’s cumulative scholarship fund to $450,000, with nearly $200,000 in scholarships awarded since 2017.
