MATSE offers departmental scholarships to its full-time undergraduate students based on academic achievement and financial need. Students must apply each academic year to be considered.
Deadline: April 15, 2026 at 11:59 p.m.
Scholarships will be awarded by July 31.
Current MatSE students must apply by April 15 each spring semester to be considered for a department scholarship. Awardees will be selected and notified by July 31. To retain scholarships granted by the department, students must be MATSE_BS or EMSC_PMAJ (intending MATSE) majors and on a full-time basis. If a student withdraws from the University or changes majors, the MATSE department scholarship terminates immediately.
The application period opens in February and closes at 11:59 p.m. on April 15 each year. Students are notified at their @psu.edu email when the application period opens each spring.
The Penn State Cocoziello Institute of Real Estate Innovation hosted its inaugural Student IdeaLab on the University Park campus in December 2024, bringing together a diverse group of undergraduate and graduate students interested in shaping the future of the real estate and built environment sectors. Designed to help students connect with peers across the University’s many disciplines and to promote co-creation of future institute activities, the event offered attendees a platform to share their interests, experiences and ideas.
Penn State’s Sustainable Labs Program ushers participating labs through a yearlong certification process, guiding them in implementing sustainable practices across multiple domains, including energy efficiency, waste reduction, water conservation, green chemistry and sustainable purchasing. The program will host a virtual information session from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 18, and from 11 a.m. to noon on Friday, Feb. 21, for those interested in learning more or applying for the next cohort.
Join us for an exciting lecture by Quentin Ramasse, Director of the SuperSTEM Laboratory, as he explores the cutting-edge advancements in electron microscopy that are transforming our understanding of materials at the atomic scale. Discover how breakthroughs in aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) have turned what was once an aspirational vision into reality.
