This award was created in spring 2023 to honor Maureen Biggers and the impact she made over fifteen years as a visionary founder and longtime director of the Center of Excellence for Women & Technology. Maureen created a lasting impact through her vision of how technology equity lowers barriers to participation in academia and in careers of all kinds, for everyone.

In awarding this annual scholarship, special consideration will be given to underrepresented populations, with preference for female, female identifying, or minority students.

Thank you for honoring Maureen's incredible legacy and supporting the technology leaders of tomorrow!

Your giving matters

Technology is pervasive in the world. To be able to flex technical knowledge, strong communication skills, and empathetic learning is a power trio that can help advance anyone’s career. Through my involvement with technology and the community of learners at the Center of Excellence for Women & Technology, I had the opportunity to support others and myself in recognizing our capabilities and to feel empowered to follow our interests and passions in technology.

Tara Aggarwal, BS'22 Former student intern and participant in the Center’s "Women Who Code" and "Ethical AI Alliance" teams
