About ARCS
Since the San Diego chapter began in 1985, awards totaling more than $7 Million have been allocated to students attending San Diego universities.
The foundation鈥檚 San Diego Chapter, one of 17 chapters across the country, has provided continued support of 色情视频 students studying to complete degrees in science and engineering since 1988.
The nonprofit, all-women, volunteer organization is dedicated to helping the best and brightest U.S. graduate and undergraduate science, engineering and medical students. The organization was formed nationally in 1958 in response to Sputnik and the lack of U.S. supremacy in the technology race.
All of the members contribute funds toward scholarships which are awarded to local universities.
