This scholarship is in memory of William Paul Jakobi (1999-2020). In 2017, William Paul enrolled at the University to pursue an engineering degree. He was involved in several programs at the University, including the UK Formula SAE team, Young Life, and a 12-step recovery program. He was kind, compassionate, and had a desire to help others. The scholarship was created to honor his life and generous spirit, and to encourage people to help others in need.
The Summer Engineering Exploration Kamp (SEEK) will feature hands-on learning opportunities, guest speakers from engineering companies, and field trips to active project sites for rising high school seniors.
Gifts to the Mining Engineering Enhancement Fund can supplement existing operating budgets or provide revenue that can be directed toward emerging needs and opportunities such as scholarships, faculty support, facility enhancement and unrestricted support for departments. This valuable support allows the college to be flexible and responsive and demonstrate the truth that there is power in numbers.
