FOX Weather, Mississippi State University establish scholarship for future meteorologists
Fox News
FOX News Media’s new, trailblazing FOX Weather streaming service will partner with the Mississippi State University Foundation to increase diversity in the meteorology field by creating scholarship opportunities for students who want to pursue careers in weather forecasting.
The long-term commitment from FOX Weather establishes an endowed scholarship fund for students studying weather forecasting at Mississippi State University, which has one of the nation’s premier meteorology programs. Students who elect a concentration in broadcast meteorology or professional meteorology/climatology will be eligible for the scholarship opportunity.
Students will be eligible to receive an annual scholarship as early as 2022 and moving forward through the endowment in perpetuity. Recipients will also be offered an internship at FOX Weather and a dedicated mentor from the streaming service’s team of top meteorologists.
