however, this doesn\u2019t mean that there shouldn\u2019t be more diversity in our industries. Research shows that Black workers are underrepresented in industries that typically have higher wages and job growth opportunities, such as professional services marketing and other professional service industries. We plan to help bridge this representation gap by not only supporting students on their academic journey, but also providing them with mentorship and leadership opportunities from some of our marketing and business development leaders as well as student memberships. We hope this will broaden their horizons, expose them to the A\/E\/C industries, and allow them to tap into the professional lives of leaders and groundbreakers within our organizations.<\/p><p>The SMPS Foundation Zinsmeyer Scholarship will focus on the selected fields of architecture, construction management, engineering, marketing, mass communications, and public relations. The candidates must be enrolled as an undergraduate student within the academic year of the award. For 2024-25, there was a total of $25,000 in the overall scholarship fund. UNCF will award the scholarship recipients based on need until all funds have been utilized. The total scholarship amount awarded to the designated HBCU institutions, per scholarship recipient, may vary but cannot exceed $1,500 for the one-time scholarship amount.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d9ac81 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5d9ac81\"
