Swanson Rink, a 74-year-old consulting engineering firm based in Denver, continues its philanthropic efforts with a $25,000 scholarship donation to the CU Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Sciences.
This is the third endowment fund to CU Boulder from Swanson Rink. “Investing in the engineering talent pipeline is critical to the success of our firm and the engineering industry,” said Swanson Rink President Gary Orazio.
“Having an industry partner who understands the importance of developing future engineers and investing in their success aligns with our college value of educating leaders,” said Dean Keith Molenaar. “When we can remove financial stress from our students, we open pathways for them to achieve their potential. I’m grateful to Swanson Rink for their support of our students – both the ones who are here today, as well as the ones who will matriculate for decades to come.”
