Louisiana Engineering Foundation Opportunities
In addition to LES scholarships, students may explore further opportunities through the Louisiana Engineering Foundation (LEF).
The Foundation works to preserve the history of the Society while supporting the long-term advancement of engineering in Louisiana through endowments and educational initiatives. LEF scholarships and funding opportunities provide additional pathways for students pursuing engineering careers in our state.
We encourage students and supporters to learn more about available Foundation programs and eligibility requirements.
