The scholarship is designed to encourage third-year students to pursue the study of lighting. The recipient is chosen by the Penn State AE department faculty.
The IES Philadelphia section is a longtime supporter of the Penn State AE Lighting Program and was one of the key supporters of the establishment of Penn State's AE Lighting Lab, a lighting demonstration center used for both teaching and research purposes.
