The NRC is now accepting applications for its Education Grant Program. The Program awards an education grant to a college, university or technical school within the United States with a railway construction, railway engineering or construction management program. It is the only association grant program specific to the rail industry.
The NRC will award $15,000 grants in 2022 to each of the top two applicants. NRC Education grant funds are intended for targeted student educational and research purposes. Learn more about the program and download the application here.
The deadline for receiving completed applications is June 3, 2022, at 5 pm EDT. Applicants will be informed of their application status by the July 4 holiday. Grant application materials can be emailed to info@nrcma.org, sent via Dropbox or similar program, or mailed to the NRC at 80 M Street, SE, Washington, D.C. 20003.
“The NRC, aside from being the voice and representation of the railroad contracting industry, provides many great benefits to its members. One such benefit is our annual tuition assistance or Scholarship program. Since 2013, the NRC has offered this program to eligible children and grandchildren of NRC member companies. This past year, we were able to provide assistance to (6) students totaling $33,000. It is an honor to be a part of this and is truly gratifying to be able to invest in the futures of these promising students and to consistently hear how much they appreciate it.”
