On behalf of the Chinese-American Engineers and Scientists Association of Southern California（CESASC）Scholarship Committee, I would like to remind you that the 2012 CESASC Scholarship is still open for application. The deadline is January 31, 2012.

CESASC is one of the largest and the most established Chinese-American professional organizations in Southern California and will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2012. Founded in 1962, CESASC has been dedicated to promote interests, aspirations, and professional excellence of Chinese-American engineers and scientists. CESASC provides career and educational advancement opportunities, technical exchange, fellowship and community service. In particular, CESASC offers annual scholarships to encourage young students to develop their interests and pursue their careers in the fields of science, engineering, and technology.

All scholarship recipients are invited to the 50th Anniversary CESASC Annual Convention in the Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles and network with professionals in the fields. Each scholarship recipient will be paired up with a mentor who is a CESASC member.

In the past four years alone, CESASC gave away $36,000 in scholarships awarded to thirty excellent students.
