WIT Campus + Cisco Scholarship

Cisco Purpose is to power an inclusive future for all, African American, Latinx, and Indigenous women are strongly encouraged to apply. In 2020, Cisco transformed our longstanding advocacy for social justice into a global, enterprise-wide commitment to explore new ways to address inequities, break down barriers, and create more inclusive opportunities for people to thrive.

We believe that social justice must ultimately be addressed across the full spectrum of diversity – including gender identity, age, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability status, nationality, religion, military status, background, culture, experience, strengths, and perspectives.

Applications close April 13th
