The Massachusetts Telecommunications Council created the Technical Achievement Scholarship Fund in 1998. The goal of the fund is to recognize and reward students who demonstrate scholastic aptitude, leadership skills and technical achievements, and to encourage them in their pursuit of a technical degree from a Massachusetts university, college or technical school. With the scholarship, the MTC is looking to entice recipients to remain in the Bay State after graduation.

Students who are part of the Scholarship program do not just receive a monetary award; they have the opportunity to meet today’s successful telecom executives and learn, in-depth, about the industry through their insights and MTC educational programs. These experiences help the future leaders of our industry gain insight into the opportunities and challenges that lay ahead.
