NATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP HELPING ARCHITECTURAL 1xbet online casino STUDENT BUILD FUTURE CAREER

MANHATTAN -- Reid 1xbet online casino remembers spending most of the sixth grade drawing floor plans. His school yearbook even predicted he would go on to study architectural engineering at Kansas State University -- a prediction that is true today.

"I had my mind made up on what I've wanted to do for a long time," said 1xbet online casino , senior in architectural engineering, Manhattan.

Knowing what type of career he wants has paid off for 1xbet online casino , who has earned the 2011 Council of American Structural Engineers Scholarship from the American Council of Engineering Companies. The national scholarship is worth ,500.

"It feels really good because the scholarship is directly related to my major," 1xbet online casino said. "I'm specializing in structural engineering, so to win the Council of American Structural Engineers national scholarship is worth more than the money -- it's good personal recognition."

The scholarship recognizes academic achievement and experience in structural engineering. To be eligible for the scholarship, 1xbet online casino also had to write a short essay about an engineer's role in the environment.

1xbet online casino hopes to work for a consulting engineering firm in the Midwest when he graduates and would like to one day return to K-State to teach.

"I'm from Manhattan, I've always been around the university and it's where I want to end up eventually," he said.

1xbet online casino is the vice president of K-State's Structural Engineers Association of Kansas and Missouri, and a member of the Architectural Engineering Institute. He is the son of Mark and Trasenda 1xbet online casino , Manhattan, and a 2007 graduate of Manhattan High School.
