This scholarship fund is a part of the CFMT General Scholarship Application that is open annually from December 1st to February 1st.
Women in Technology of Tennessee has created the WiTT Endowment Scholarship Fund to support women pursuing careers in technology and bring more gender diversity to the IT industry. All across Middle Tennessee, women in technology are dealing with the same challenges, craving the same opportunities, seeking new ways to grow, and looking for like-minded women to share it with. Through education, networking, scholarships and community outreach, WiTT promotes women in technology and helps carve a path for the next generation.
