Texas Agricultural Irrigation Association

The Texas Agricultural Irrigation Association (TAIA) in Lubbock, TX is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and supporting the agricultural irrigation industry. They offer the Dick Laursen Memorial Scholarship to registered, full-time students pursuing a college education in agriculture, including graduate students, with scholarships awarded based on qualifications and a maximum amount of $4,000 over four years.

TAIA also maintains a separate bank account designated for scholarships, with the board of directors determining the annual transfer of funds from the general fund. A scholarship committee, appointed by the board, reviews applications and selects recipients based on the scholarship policy and application criteria, including maintaining a minimum 2.5 GPA and submitting a maximum 500-word essay. Scholarship funds are sent directly to the student's selected college to be used towards enrollment expenses.
