Build U. Scholarship

Introducing Buildium’s Build U. Scholarship. They are giving away one $2,000 prize each semester to the Product Design, Interaction Design, Engineering, or Computer Science student who best explains how having a shared set of beliefs is important for building a great company.

The catch: You’ve got 1,000 words. Keep it short and sweet, but make it powerful and compelling. Then email your essay to scholarship@buildium.com. They'll read all the essays and pick the one that best exemplifies how shared beliefs can build a better company.
