About the
L.L. Vaughn Scholars Program
The
L.L. Vaughn Scholars Program provides summer internships and
financial awards to full time students in mechanical engineering
who possess an interest in the technical and economical issues
associated with the plumbing, heating, and cooling industry.
The North Carolina Association of Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors
sponsors the program. The association wishes to invest in students
who are interested in the engineering challenges that face the
industry and who have the aptitude and desire to become future
leaders. The L.L. Vaughn Scholars Program consists of summer
internships for rising sophomores, juniors, and/or seniors in
the mechanical engineering curriculum. Interns work with association
members throughout North Carolina for ten weeks each summer
to gain practical experience and to learn more about the plumbing,
heating, and cooling industry. In addition, scholarships of
$3000 per year are provided for interns who have demonstrated
exceptional potential.
