The Deep Foundations Institute (DFI) Educational Trust, the charitable arm of DFI, recently awarded several scholarships to civil engineering and deep foundations students at two colleges.
In a news release, the trust says it manages 20 scholarship programs funded by endowments, donations and fundraising. In the latest awards, three students from the Stanley Merjan City College of New York (CCNY) Civil Engineering Scholarship Fund each received $5,000 from the Stanley Merjan City College of New York Civil Engineering Scholarship Fund. That fund, established in 2010, is named for the late Stanley Merjan, a CCNY graduate, inspiration and mentor to young engineers throughout the construction industry. The recipients, all senior civil engineering students, were Courtney Grinnel, Justin Lin and Meri Stojanova.
