The Barry M. Goldwater
Scholarship and Excellence in Education Program was established by
Congress in 1986 to honor Senator Barry M. Goldwater, who served his
country for 56 years as a soldier and statesman, including 30 years of
service in the U.S. Senate.
The purpose of the Foundation is to provide a
continuing source of highly qualified scientists, mathematicians, and
engineers by awarding scholarships to college students who intend to
pursue careers in these fields.
