Bluestaq announces scholarship fund for UCCS computer science and engineering students

 Bluestaq LLC, a Colorado Springs-based enterprise software company, launched a named scholarship in partnership with the UCCS College of Engineering and Applied Science. The Bluestaq Scholarship is open to UCCS students studying computer science or computer engineering.

The new scholarship opportunity is part of Bluestaq’s internship and workforce development program to cultivate the next generation of computer and technology professionals in the Colorado Springs space and cybersecurity ecosystem. One student will be selected from a pool of applicants, and the awardee will receive a $10,000 scholarship in addition to a guaranteed internship with Bluestaq the summer following the school year for which the scholarship was awarded.

“This scholarship in collaboration with UCCS is the beginning of Bluestaq’s investment in the next generation of Bluestaq software developers,” said Simon Nunn, Bluestaq co-founder and chief architect. “As a proud alumnus of UCCS, I am honored to have the opportunity to give back to UCCS. I believe computer science degree jobs and other technology organizations within the Colorado Springs community have a responsibility to invest in our local engineering students to shape the future of our workforce in the space domain.”
