Scholarships Built by Spartans, For Spartans

At the Burgess Institute for Entrepreneurship & Innovation, we believe in the power of education, community, and the potential of every Spartan to build meaningful change. Alongside our programs, experiences, and resources, we steward a growing portfolio of scholarships that support students as they develop entrepreneurial skills, strengthen their mindset, and move ideas into action.

Each scholarship represents belief—in a student, an idea, and a future that is still taking shape. Made possible through the generosity of Spartan alumni, entrepreneurs, and partners, these scholarships help expand access and opportunity for builders, creators, and innovators across Michigan State University. 

Eligibility requirements and application details are available on each scholarship page.
