Scholarships

Each year, the Central Texas Chapter of the American Concrete Institute awards scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students in Central Texas who are pursuing a concrete-related degree.  Applications are distributed through faculty at The University of Texas at Austin and Texas State University each fall semester.  Scholarships will be presented at the December Chapter Meeting and scholarship recipients are required to provide a brief presentation to the Chapter during the following spring semester.  Scholarship applications are accepted between September 1st and October 31st each year with a deadline of October 31st at 5:00pm CST.  Applications received outside of this window will not be accepted.

The Rodney Daives, Joe Dan Johnson, and Gerald Lankes Memorial Scholarships were established by the Central Texas Chapter of the American Concrete Institute in order to preserve the legacy and contributions made by the three individuals to the concrete community of Texas and to the local Chapter.
