The Food Services Student Leadership Program Scholarship

The BYUH Food Services Department conducts a Student Leadership Program where Food Services Managers select student supervisors to participate in a course to receive current, viable management training, not only for their current job responsibilities, but also for their future careers. Leadership skills and work performance are strongly considered to qualify a student supervisor for the program.

 

As program participants, the student supervisors have the privilege to apply for one of four $500 educational scholarships (two awarded for Winter Semester and two awarded for Fall Semester). These funds may be used for school expenses, such as tuition, fees, room and board, and/or books. Listed below is the current information and requirements for this scholarship.
