The Engineers Foundation of Ohio (EFO) was formed in 1964 to
create math,
science, scholarship and other educational programs for Ohio's
youth and engineering professionals. Programs for engineers included
those that develop social and managerial skills. EFO helps lighten the burden of skyrocketing college
costs by offering more than $25,000 in scholarships to Ohio's
best and brightest engineering students.
-
MATHCOUNTS, EFO's "flagship"
program, has grown to include nearly 2,300
middle school children statewide in local chapter
math competitions.
-
SCHOLARSHIPS
totaling more than $25,000
are distributed annually to
about two dozen of Ohio's brightest engineering students. The
NSPE
Foundation has provided more than $1
million in scholarships over the years.
-
Imagine
Engineering Coloring Contest introduces second
graders to the world of engineering. EFO identified
this age as critical to developing proper attitudes toward
math and science so all children can realize their
potential for engineering if they choose it as an
educational career path later in life.

ENGINEERS
LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE: The Engineer As Leader helps approximately
40 young
engineering students and career-changing veterans

strides in advancing the profession of
engineering and engineering education in Ohio.
