Birla Carbon Scholars Program Presents Scholarships
ATLANTA/MUMBAI, India – Promoting sustainability through education, Birla Carbon awarded 10 students from Kennesaw State University (KSU) in Atlanta, Georgia, with sponsored scholarships for their outstanding research in various fields of science and mathematics. The presentation took place on Aug. 29, 2017, at a KSU symposium. The event marked the fourth year of a five-year partnership with Birla Carbon, which has allowed the college’s 10 Birla Carbon Scholars to participate in summer research opportunities.
To receive the scholarship, each student scholar worked along with a faculty researcher on a project that dealt with various themes revolving around sustainability, an aspect that Birla Carbon strongly practices and advocates. Dale Clark, Chief Technology Officer – North America, Birla Carbon, and Terence Norman, Director - Human Resources, Birla Carbon, along with other judges from the company, reviewed posters summarizing the students’ research on display in the Carmichael Student Center’s University Rooms on the Kennesaw Campus.
