The James H. Davis Scholarship is a scholarship program that is sponsored by the American Association of Blacks in Energy (AABE). The scholarship is named in honor of James H. Davis, who was a former president of the AABE and a leader in the energy industry. Applicants must submit an application form, an official transcript, two letters of recommendation, and an essay that describes their career goals and how they plan to contribute to the energy industry. The essay should also discuss the importance of diversity and inclusion in the industry.
The scholarship award is $5,000, and up to 10 scholarships are awarded each year. Scholarship recipients may also be invited to participate in the AABE’s annual conference, where they can network with energy industry professionals and attend educational sessions.
The application deadline for the James H. Davis Scholarship is typically in January or February, and scholarship recipients are notified in the spring.
