Membership Engagement Committee » Awards Sub-Committee

Committee members administer the ARCS Award stipend program. This includes awards for registrations at ARCS programs, travel stipends for in person conferences and workshops and internship stipends (awarded 2-3 times per year). The committee researches and explores other opportunities to grow and develop the program and develop opportunities to provide resources to the members, i.e. fellowships to ARC and professional recognition awards.
