GUELPH, ONT.—Consulting engineering firm C.F. Crozier & Associates Inc. is making a $25,000 commitment over five years to the University of Guelph C.F. Crozier & Associates Inc. Scholarship fund.
The scholarship is awarded to one student each year enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering program. The scholarship’s first recipient is engineering student Yusra Hasan for her outstanding academic achievement and drive. She was inspired to pursue an education in environmental engineering by her entrepreneurial family in the construction business.
Many graduates from the University of Guelph have built careers at Crozier, including the company’s president Nick Mocan. Amanda Pinto, a land development engineering intern at Crozier, has recently been named this year’s University of Guelph Young Alumnus Award recipient for her outstanding leadership in the engineering community, indicates a release, adding since joining the Crozier team in 2018, she has assisted with a variety of impactful and complex projects including sustainable stormwater management research and design.
She also serves as the chair of the Professional Engineers Ontario Grand River Chapter 30×30 Committee to help promote the number of licensed women in the engineering field.
“This generous award – among the most valuable available to our undergraduate engineering students – offers significant financial relief at a time when the pandemic has negatively impacted students’ finances, job opportunities, and more,” said Richard Zytner, interim dean, College of Engineering and Physical Sciences, in a statement. “The C.F. Crozier & Associates Inc. Scholarship is empowering the next generation of Guelph Engineers like Yusra Hasan, allowing them to achieve their true potential throughout their time at the School of Engineering.”
