North Carolina Society of Engineers
PictureRonald C. Harrell, 1935-2001
The North Carolina Society of Engineers, founded in 1918, is a non-profit, non-partisan, non-sectarian organization which helps to promote the social, economic and technical interests of the engineering profession throughout the state of North Carolina.

NCSE has as part of its charter the promotion of engineering education in the state.  Mr. Ron Harrell, who is deceased, was an outstanding member of the NCSE.  He was active in the society in numerous ways, including serving as president, district director, committee chairmanships.  


In 1999 Ron was honored as the NCSE Outstanding Engineer.  NCSE has chosen to name this scholarship in honor of Ron.

The Harrell Scholarship will provide support to assist with tuition, fees, and books for a full time student who has a declared major in Engineering or Engineering Technology.  The recipient may reapply for consideration but eligibility shall be limited to four (4) semesters.

Scholarship payments will be made directly to the school in the winner’s name.  Payments will be by semester or quarter.

The Scholarship Committee, under the direction of NCSE Board of Directors, will be the final authority on the scholarship winner and will be the responsible entity to interview, validate, select and award the scholarship.
