Now Accepting Applications for 2022 PCI/Gema Scholarship

The Powder Coating Institute (PCI) is accepting applications for its 2022 PCI Scholarship Program, designed to award students studying in areas that advance powder coating technologies.

PCI recognizes the need to bring bright, young scholars into the powder coating industry. “Attracting qualified talent to continue to expand the industry is a top priority for PCI members,” states Kevin Coursin, PCI’s Executive Director.  “PCI is glad that we can continue to offer these scholarships to promote sustainable growth in the powder coating industry.”

Candidates must complete the online application and submit supporting documents by March 18, 2022.  Interested applicants should go to https://www.powdercoating.org/page/ScholarshipApp to submit the required information.

The PCI Scholarship Subcommittee reviews applications and awards scholarships based on a set of criteria, established and approved by the PCI Board of Directors, including specific studies and projects related to powder coatings, future goals & career objectives, unique qualifications/goals/aspirations, letter of recommendation and grade point average. 

A representative from Gema USA will participate in the selection process for the PCI/Gema Scholarship.
