Dover, the parent company of OPW, recently awarded 30 scholarships to children of full-time employees through its Dover Scholars Program.

Among the winners are:

  • Elizabeth Hutchinson, child of Acme Cryogenics employee Daniel Hutchinson, a high school senior attending Birchwood Academy in Bethlehem, Pa.
  • Benjamin Olenick, child of OPW employee Douglas Olenick, a high school senior attending Talawanda High School in Oxford, Ohio.
  • Nikhil Verma, child of Innovative Control Systems employee Nirmal Verma, a college student attending Pennsylvania State University majoring in aerospace engineering.

“Congratulations to Joon, Elizabeth, Benjamin, and Nikhil for being award four of the 30 scholarship granted worldwide,” said Kevin Long, president of OPW. “Recipients of this prestigious scholarship were selected from students who applied across all Dover operating companies globally. Being selected for this scholarship is a true honor and we commend our four awardees, along with the entire 2022 class of scholarship recipients for their outstanding achievements.”

Dover recently expanded its Scholars program to reach more students with larger scholarships.

Selections are made by a four-member committee of college admissions professionals from prominent universities based on academic excellence, leadership abilities, and extracurricular activities. Winners are high school seniors or current college students who may receive up to $12,000 in scholarship support over the four years of their undergraduate education. Now in its 11th year, the program has awarded 373 scholarships, providing approximately $2.6 million in financial support to deserving students.
