1994-1995 Technical Communication Scholarship Competition Winners

Each year, the Washington, DC Chapter conducts the Austin T. Brown Technical Communication Scholarship Competition for high school students in grades 10-12. This local competition supports excellence in technical communication at the high school level and encourages the next generation to consider technical writing as a career goal.

The top winners are entered in the International Student Technical Writing Competition (ISTWC) that takes place in June. This competition provides a unique avenue for international recognition. Scholarship awards in the international competition are $1000 for Distinguished, $500 for Excellence, $300 for Merit, and a certificate for Achievement.
