Wounded Warrior scholarship for WSU's College of Engineering receives more national media attention

Global automotive retail consulting firm, Urban Science, announced yesterday that it has committed to building a $1 million endowment to support the Col. Gregory Gadson Scholarship at the Wayne State University College of Engineering in perpetuity. The scholarship will provide up to $50,000 annually to a wounded warrior to study engineering and earn an EDGE Engineering Entrepreneur Certificate. "The opportunity for trained engineers to become successful entrepreneurs through their own inventions is tremendous, and exactly what the Col. Greg Gadson Scholarship will support," said Farshad Fotouhi, Wayne State's dean of engineering.
