The Ontario Professional Engineers Foundation for Education is the official charity of the Ontario engineering profession. Founded in 1959, the Foundation provides funding and recognition to students at the 16 accredited engineering schools in the province. Each year, the Foundation provides two entrance scholarships to each school and between two and eight undergraduate scholarships depending on the size of the school. In addition to the entrance and undergraduate scholarships, the Foundation provides a gold medal to each school for the graduating student with the highest academic standing.

The Foundation’s purpose is to nurture tomorrow’s engineers by providing deserving students with recognition, financial assistance and a network of licenced professional engineers.
