ESAB, a Maryland-based provider of welding and cutting products, has launched its Future Fabricators Program. The new program offers 12 scholarships of $5,000 each that are awarded through the American Welding Society (AWS) Foundation.

ESAB’s Future Fabricators Program was developed for aspiring welders and fabricators to provide tools, equipment, scholarships, training, and educational materials to technical and trade education programs from high schools to four-year welding engineering programs across North America. The scholarships support students working toward welding certifications and associate’s and baccalaureate welding degrees.

The application deadline for the 2024 National AWS Foundation scholarships is March 1.

Scholarship applications are reviewed by the AWS Foundation’s Education Scholarship Committee, and the selections will be made and announced in May. The $5,000 scholarships are made possible by a limited endowment that ESAB established in 2022 in partnership with the AWS Foundation.
