CEMS 2026 Scholarship Recipients

Each year, the Society provides scholarships for Colorado collegiate candidates with studies focused in the environmental science, engineering, or law arenas. In 2026, CEMS is pleased to announce we were able to award three scholarships of $3000 each to deserving students!

The annual scholarship coordination, including development and distribution of the scholarship application, is led by the Scholarship Committee. The applications are reviewed by the Scholarship Committee and recommendations on scholarship awards are presented to the Board for approval. A notice of the scholarship awards are made to the recipients and presented in the monthly newsletter for notice to the members.
