The Syracuse Pulp & Paper Foundation aims to inspire engineering students to explore careers in the sustainable paper and packaging industry.
We support students at SUNY ESF with scholarships and grants, networking opportunities with industry professionals, and connections for employment.
Scholarships & Grants
SUNY ESF students who graduate from the B.S. Paper Engineering degree program in good standing can earn $30,000 or more in scholarships and grants!
Paid Internships & Co-Ops
SPPF connects students to our Member Companies in the paper and allied industries through on-campus information sessions and interviews for paid internship and co-op positions throughout their college career. In addition to great pay and industry experience, these positions often lead to full-time position offers for after graduation!
Career Guidance & Mentorship
The SPPF Board of Directors is comprised of leaders in the paper and allied industries who are typically alumni of the Paper Engineering program at SUNY ESF. Our board members have been known to help students with resume reviews, mock interviews, mentorship, career guidance, and much more.
In addition, Deb DeWitt, the SPPF Secretary, has an office in Walters Hall where she is an invaluable resource to students on a multitude of topics.
