The Intersect Group scholarship is designed to support our candidates’, clients’ and colleagues’ dependents who are entering college to major in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM). Each recipient will be granted a scholarship of $3,000.

“It’s important to invest in education. We are proud of this initiative to cultivate leaders in STEM by giving them an opportunity to attend college with fewer financial burdens,” said Mike Snyder, CFO/COO.

According to national research, in 2018, 8 million STEM jobs will be available in the United States, but the vast majority of U.S. students will be unprepared to fill them. 51 percent of all STEM jobs are projected to be in computer science-related fields. STEM fields are at the core of the nation’s innovation. 

We are excited to offer The TIG scholarship as support to our nations next generation of scientists, technologists, engineers, and mathematicians.
