Mary Robinson Wagner Scholarship

When Mary Robinson Wagner came to UW-Platteville in 1974 and entered the College of Engineering, she was one of only seven women in a school of approximately 500 men. The studies and opportunities in Engineering proved interesting, challenging, and opened up a world of possibilities. This scholarship aims to encourage others to be bold in reaching for opportunities and to pursue Engineering as the keystone for the future -not just for themselves but also for the greater community, to make a difference.
