posted on Aug. 21: CAE gift boosts software engineering scholarships

[img_inline align=”right” src=”http://padnws01.mcmaster.ca/images/CAE.scholarships.final.jpg”]CAE Inc. has made a $100,000 gift that will support the creation
of an endowed fund to support undergraduate scholarships in
the Faculty of Engineering.

The CAE scholarships in software engineering will be awarded
to students who have successfully completed Level II of a
software engineering program.

Red Wilson, chair of McMaster's successful Changing
Tomorrow Today campaign and Tony Fell, campaign
vice-chair, accepted the gift from CAE president Derek Burney at
a meeting held earlier this month.

The endowment, when fully mature, will enable three
scholarships to be awarded each year at a value of $2,500
each.

CAE is the world's premier provider of simulation and control
technologies for training and optimization solutions in the
aerospace, defence and forestry industries.
