The scholarship was established after her retirement in 2015. The purpose of this award is to encourage students to take on more leadership opportunities and encourage more students to engage in the electronics industry.
The Stromberg Scholarship is awarded annually to a student pursuing a degree in electronics (or surrounding industry) and actively involved in the SMTA. The scholarship is intended for the purchase of technical books and research materials, for participation in conferences related to electronics assembly and packaging, and for living expenses if necessary.
