INDIANAPOLIS — The Asphalt Pavement Association of Indiana (APAI) has named Trine University students Jacob Barkey of Auburn, Indiana, Delaney Keirn of Claypool, Indiana, Hannah Murray of Shelbyville, Indiana, Derek Miller of Shipshewana, Indiana, and Lance Williamson of Decatur, Indiana, as 2020 APAI Scholars.
The five civil engineering students were recognized as scholarship recipients during the 2020 APAI Virtual Winter Conference on Dec. 16.
Scholarships are awarded by the APAI Scholarship Committee to students studying construction management, civil engineering and construction engineering and management at six nationally accredited Indiana universities, including Trine. Students must complete an in-person interview with members of the Scholarship Committee to receive an award. The total amount of scholarships awarded in 2020 by the association totaled $40,000 to deserving scholars, in anticipation that many recipients will remain in Indiana and seek employment opportunities with APAI's member contractors.
Trine University’s Class of 2024 saw 99.1% of its members obtain their desired career outcome within six months of graduation, continuing a 12-year streak of employment and graduate school placement averaging greater than 99%.
