BWBR Scholarships

BWBR sponsors two $2,500 scholarships designed to support equity in the built environment, awarded based on an application package that includes a sample design project and a written statement.

The scholarships are open to students currently enrolled in a school of architecture, interior design, or graphic design. Applicants should have completed at least one year of their course of study by the date of application. Like the Portfolio Scholarship, these awards recognize developing designers who demonstrate exceptional skill.

The 2026 application period is now closed. Check back later to see this year’s winners!
