Wyatt Dille (North Carolina State University), Electrical Engineering, Sophomore
“I’m incredibly grateful to SASE and ExxonMobil for awarding me the $5,000 ExxonMobil Scholarship. This support will empower me to continue pursuing my goals in electrical engineering and will make a meaningful difference in my academic journey.”
Jaeyoon Kim (North Carolina State University), Mechanical Engineering, Junior
"Receiving this scholarship is a true privilege, providing much-needed financial support since I moved to the U.S. This opportunity not only empowers my pursuit of a Mechanical Engineering degree, but also enables me to continue my research and various projects in robotics. I am incredibly grateful to SASE and ExxonMobil for this opportunity, and I’m excited to promote shared values with SASE—inspiring the success of Asian heritage scientists and engineers!"
Julia Moy (Georgia Institute of Technology), Materials Science and Engineering, Freshman
"It is such an honor to be a recipient of the ExxonMobil scholarship. This scholarship not only reduces the financial stress of college but, more importantly, supports my pursuit of a career in STEM as an Asian American. In just my first year of college alone, SASE has provided such an amazing and welcoming community for me to be a part of and I cannot wait for more!"
Supitcha Hanamornsate (University of North Texas), Electrical Engineering, Sophomore
"This scholarship is more than financial support -- it’s the fuel that allows me to grow beyond survival mode. With one less burden on my shoulders, I can now focus fully on my education, leadership, and future. As a full-time electrical engineering student, an officer in SASE, and someone helping run a small family business, time is my most valuable resource. Thanks to ExxonMobil and SASE, I can reinvest that time into deepening my technical skills, supporting others through campus events, and preparing myself for the opportunities ahead. This award isn’t just helping me get through school -- it’s helping me build the version of myself I’ve always aimed to become."
Danielle Quayyum (University of Southern California), Mechanical Engineering, Junior
Ethan Jiang (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Electrical Engineering, Sophomore
"Thank you so much to both SASE and ExxonMobil for selecting me as a recipient of this scholarship! This scholarship will not only provide me financial support but also open up infinitely more opportunities for me to advance my academic career and achieve my personal goals. Getting recognition for my hard work and feeling supported by both organizations will certainly motivate me to keep persevering through my endeavors and reinforces my commitment to using my education to make a meaningful impact in my field. Thank you for investing in my future!"
Sam Lun (UT Austin), Computer Science, Chemical Engineering, Junior
"This scholarship will go a long way in supporting my education and enabling me to give back to my communities. Knowing that SASE and ExxonMobil believed in me allowed me to believe in myself, which will help me to succeed throughout college and beyond."
Jonathan Lin (Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology), Mechanical Engineering, Freshman
"As a recipient of the 2025 ExxonMobil Scholarship, I am beyond thankful for the financial relief that will allow me to continue serving my community through my local SASE chapter. I am deeply grateful for ExxonMobil and SASE for contributing to my academic journey and encouraging me to always strive for excellence in my work."
Guise Pham (Stanford University), Mechanical Engineering, Junior
"It is an incredible honor to be selected as a recipient of the 2025 SASE Scholarship Award through the Northrop Grumman Foundation. This support will allow me to continue my graduate studies in mechanical engineering without the financial burden. I will be able to dedicate more time in robotic dexterity research and continue to be engaged with the greater Stanford community. Thank you for allowing students like me to reach their true potential! "
Raheel Muhammad (Drexel University), Mechanical Engineering, Sophomore
"Receiving this scholarship from the Northrop Grumman Foundation is truly a blessing. As an international student, every bit of support counts - and this award not only eases the financial pressure on my family and me but also feels like recognition for the hard work I’ve been putting in. Juggling academics, work, and personal responsibilities hasn’t been easy, but this scholarship reminds me that the effort is worth it. I’m incredibly thankful for this opportunity - it motivates me to keep pushing forward and striving for excellence"
Kaitlin Wong (The University of Alabama in Huntsville), Computer Science, Junior
"I am so grateful to SASE and Parker Hannifin for this incredible opportunity to continue my education and further my professional goals! SASE has been an integral part of my college experience, and I'm proud to serve as my university's SASE Chapter President. I admire Parker Hannifin's commitment to sustainable solutions. It's an honor to receive a scholarship from a company whose values align with my own and inspire me to keep building a better tomorrow. Thank you so much! "
