  • Werth Innovator Scholarship: Sophomores earn $3k

    Sophomores Apply to be a Werth Innovator!

    Are you an inventor, artist, or builder? Do you find yourself creating solutions to problems? When you hear the word entrepreneur, do you dream of creating the next great technology? Are you excited when you meet other people like you? Do you love UConn?

    If you answered yes to any of these questions, the Werth Institute wants you to apply for a new scholarship and program during your sophomore year. The University of Connecticut has many programs that need help with promotion, recruitment, and education in the Entrepreneurship & Innovation areas, and the Werth Innovators will help build this future.

    Currently, we are accepting applications from sophomores that have created something for a $3,000 scholarship that includes mentoring and unique, transformative experiences. Werth Innovators will act as ambassadors on campus for many entrepreneurship activities, as well as a social network to help each other grow.

    Applications will be accepted until Monday, September 10, 2018
