However, financial barriers often prevent women from fully engaging in the burgeoning music technology sector, which continues to evolve with new digital tools and platforms.
Eligible candidates must be full-time students currently enrolled in a music technology program at an accredited Tennessee institution. The application process requires students to clearly articulate their career aspirations in music technology and demonstrate their commitment to engaging in practical, hands-on experiences within the field. Given the competitive nature of the scholarship, academic achievements and relevant extracurricular involvement are also taken into account during the selection process.
The Music Technology Scholarships aim to bridge the gap between education and the rapidly changing industry landscape by offering not only financial support but also stipends for internships and training programs. Collaborations with local music studios and tech companies are key components of this initiative, enabling students to gain real-world experience that is invaluable for their future careers.
