Engineering Technology student receives CMAA Gulf Coast Chapter Scholarship

Congratulations to Lillian Laporte recipient of the 2022 Scholarship presented by Construction Management Association of America’s (CMAA) Gulf Coast Chapter for outstanding academic achievement and promise as a future construction management practitioner. Lillian is a Senior in Engineering Technology with a minor in business and a minor in Pre-MBA.

The CMAA Gulf Coast Chapter awards a limited number of scholarships to qualified students to help defray the costs of pursuing a degree in Construction Management or a related-degree program. The selection committee reviews applications based on academic performance, quality of the essay on future plans and interest, self-help endeavors, recommendation from a faculty advisor and the nature and extent of the student’s extracurricular activities.

During the summer of 2022, Lillian worked as an Intern for C.H. Fenstermaker & Associates, LLC., Inc.  Lillian plans to pursue her MBA at UL Lafayette with a focus on Project Management.
