Education Initiatives

Digital Infrastructure Senior Capstone Project

Learning real world challenges

iMasons has created a Senior Capstone Project to help graduating students enter the workforce with skills, experience, and knowledge specific to our industry.

The iMasons Capstone Project is intended as a stand-in for traditional Senior Design projects in which students showcase the application of their engineering and design knowledge. 

All Capstone students are awarded a $2,500 iMasons Scholarship as well as access to a number of professional credentials, offered exclusively by DCD Academy.

 

Scholarships

Investing in future talents

iMasons offers members scholarships to pursue degrees and professional credentials that help prepare them for careers in digital infrastructure.

iMasons has a goal to award at least 50% of scholarships to underrepresented groups, and is committed to increasing the diversity and inclusion in the digital infrastructure industry. People of all backgrounds and identities are encouraged to apply.

iMasons provides annual $2,500 scholarships to members pursuing relevant Associate, Bachelor, or Master level degrees at any academic institution.

Curriculum

Driving knowledge for the digital future

iMasons is developing Digital Infrastructure-focused curricula, including educational courses and learning experiences designed to achieve learning outcomes and goals relevant to the industry.

The curriculum addresses multiple academic levels, including:

  • K-12
  • Bachelor-level courses
  • Bachelor-level academic minor

As we work to foster future talents, we continue to build the resources needed to facilitate learning for the digital future.

More information on this initiative to be shared soon.
