Preparing Students

What we do

The Paper Science and Chemical Engineering program is committed to preparing students for successful technical careers in the pulp, paper and allied industries. This mission is accomplished by promoting excellence in instruction, undergraduate research opportunities, industrial internships, and involvement in professional organizations.

  • Scholarships

    Direct student support that helps cover college expenses and keeps strong talent in the pipeline.

  • Program Support

    Private gifts help fund academic and program needs—resources that state funding may not fully cover.

  • Industry & Community

    We work with alumni, friends, and corporate partners to strengthen the program’s image and reach future students.

23nd Annual Golf Scramble

Featured Event

Please join us to support the Paper Science and Chemical Engineering program at the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point. Proceeds from the Foundation's Golf Outing support student scholarships. Every year the Foundation provides high-achieving students nearly $100,000 in scholarships. Industry support is vital to support the scholarships to help attract these students which in turn provides industry with well educated, prepared and enthusiastic engineers. Last year's event was at the Stevens Point Country Club with a shotgun start at 11:00 am. A buffet meal follows the golf outing with prizes for various events, and a raffle.


Tentative date is set for Monday, September 14th, 2026. Location to be determined.
