The 1890 David Scott Scholarship Program
The 1890 David Scott Scholarship Program at Lincoln University of Missouri offers scholarships to outstanding freshmen who aspire to pursue baccalaureate degrees in the food and agricultural sciences. As a designated land-grant university since 1890, Lincoln University has a longstanding commitment to preparing students to be leaders in agriculture and agribusiness. Today, Lincoln’s CAEHS (College of Agriculture, Environmental, and Human Sciences) continues this tradition by teaching a diverse population of students the principles and applications of modern agriculture.
The 1890 David Scott Scholarship Program encourages students at 1890 institutions to pursue degrees in food and agricultural sciences, leading to a highly skilled workforce in food and agricultural systems. The 1890 David Scott Scholarship is funded under grant 2020-38430-31309 by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
