The Association for Iron & Steel Technology (AIST) Member Chapter Scholarships program offers more than 43 scholarships annually through its 22 local member chapters. These awards support high school seniors, undergraduate, and in some cases graduate students, who are pursuing studies relevant to the iron and steel industry, including engineering, metallurgy, materials science, and related fields.
