The new PSEG Scholars program provides scholarship money and mentoring for students with a passion for engineering and an interest in pursuing a career in the energy industry.
The PSEG Foundation will give six high school seniors $24,000 for their college studies, distributed evenly over four years.
In addition, PSEG will match each scholar with a company employee who can provide guidance and perspective.
PSEG Scholars will be invited to tour the company's facilities and join employees as they volunteer at community events. They will also be invited to apply for a summer internship following completion of their sophomore year.
