A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation

The A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation is dedicated to investing in the education of future engineers and supporting initiatives that enhance access to engineering education. Established by A. James Clark, who attributed his professional success to an engineering scholarship, the Foundation has committed over $592 million to educate future problem-solvers. Its mission includes expanding access for students who may not otherwise afford a world-class engineering degree, improving educational facilities, and recruiting top faculty to prepare future engineers to tackle society's challenges. The Foundation's efforts are exemplified through programs like the A. James Clark Scholars Program, which supports undergraduate engineering students at leading institutions across the nation.
