Scholarships

Supporting the Next Generation of Aviation, Aerospace, & STEM Leaders

Each year, thanks to generous sponsors, partners, and a portion of Airshow ticket proceeds, the California Capital Airshow awards scholarships to students pursuing education in aviation, aerospace engineering, environmental science, airport management, aircraft maintenance, aviation safety, and other STEM fields.

The scholarship program has expanded to support students attending or applying to:

• 4-year universities
• 2-year community & junior colleges
• Trade schools and technical training programs

Our goal is simple: open doors for young people who dream of changing the world — from the skies or from the systems that support them.

What We Look For:

• A passion for aviation, aerospace, engineering, or STEM
• A commitment to education and career growth
• Students with financial need or limited access to resources
• Demonstrated motivation to serve community or industry
