Congratulations to Jennifer Tartaglia, one of two recipients of the 2024-2025 EVAPCO, Inc. Engineering Scholarship. These brand new $5,000 scholarships were designed to recognize and encourage students whose goal is to pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering or Civil Engineering, or a field of study relevant to mechanical contracting/ equipment manufacturing that supports the mechanical contracting industry. The scholarships made their debut at the MCAA Convention in Austin, TX during the Awards of Excellence Breakfast on March 5th.
Jennifer Tartaglia is a Mechanical Engineering major at the University of Maryland, College Park and is anticipated to graduate this spring. She has been an active member of her student chapter for the past two years and currently serves as the UMD Student Chapter President. Last summer, Jennifer interned with MCAA Member, Harris.
“Mechanical construction has a unique appeal due to its combination of hands-on work, problem-solving, and precision. I find the challenge of translating intricate plans into actual structures rewarding, as it demands a balance of technical skills and adaptability. There’s also a tangible impact; you see your efforts directly shape the environment, which is incredibly satisfying. Plus, the constant innovation in materials, systems, and methods keeps things fresh, offering endless opportunities to learn and grow.
I love that I am able to apply the knowledge I’ve learned as a student chapter member and as a mechanical engineering major to tangible applications.”
MCAA and the John R. Gentille Foundation congratulate Jennifer on this prestigious scholarship and thank EVAPCO, Inc. for their commitment to supporting students interested in pursuing a career in the mechanical contracting industry.
