Scholarship

Smith Scholarship

Jim Smith, E’88, and Amie Miller Smith, AMD’87, met in the stacks of the old Dodge Library. The two bonded through their unmatched friendliness, eagerness to help others, and passion for Northeastern. Today the two provide transformative opportunities to Galante Fellows through the James P. Smith and Amie Miller Smith Scholarship. The Smith Scholarship helps eliminate barriers many Galante students face in making a Northeastern education more accessible and supports Galante students’ innovative ideas, academic paths, and career goals.

Candidates must be U.S. citizens and full-time undergraduate or graduate students at Northeastern enrolled in the Galante Engineering Business program.
