The Donald L. Blount Memorial Graduate Scholarship is open to applicants worldwide, who are members, in good standing, of SNAME. Applicants need to be SNAME members for at least four months before the application deadline, looking to pursue studies focusing on high-speed craft hydrodynamics and culminating in a graduate degree. If applicants already have a Master of Engineering degree and would like to continue studies focusing on high-speed craft hydrodynamics, they will remain eligible for consideration for postgraduate (PhD) study. The Donald L. Blount Memorial Scholarship can be used by the student for tuition, textbooks, supplies, required equipment and academic fees, other academically related expenses required for enrollment at an educational institution, or for room and board or other necessary living expenses. One scholarship for one year of study may be awarded annually. Although applicants are not required to provide GRE scores, they will be at a disadvantage if they do not do so, regardless of graduate school admission requirements. GRE scores count as much as 15 percent of the application ranking for award consideration. Applications must be received prior to 1 February with all supporting documentation by 15 February. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Society of Naval Architects & Marine Engineers for more information.
