2017 Martin Marietta Scholarships Planning for a Greater Future Martin Marietta Grows Scholarship Program, Honors 8 Exceptional Students This year, the Martin Marietta Scholarship program makes company history by increasing the number of annual winners from six students to eight. The change means more than just two more individuals recognized. It means two more lives changed, two more dreams moved closer to reality and two more leaders preparing for a world desperate for fresh ideas. These eight students hail from various parts of the country, but are united in their excellence. This fall, they move into a new phase of life armed with the lessons they’ve learned and an unquenchable thirst for success. They’ll be teachers and artists, lawyers and athletes, scientists and animal lovers. Martin Marietta is proud of each and every one of them.

Each year, an independent committee of individuals in the field of higher education hand selects a group of high-performing high school seniors to receive college scholarships worth $3,500 that can be renewed annually for up to four years. These scholars, selected over dozens of candidates, have excelled in the classroom, the community and beyond. Though their futures are not yet certain, it is clear that their individual impacts on several college campuses will be significant. These colleges are the University of North Texas, the Minerva Schools at KGI (San Francisco), Alabama State University, the Georgia Institute of Technology, Texas A&M University, North Carolina State University, DePauw University and Texas State University.
