“Nordson Corporation selected SMR because of their over three decades of experience in scholarship management and their attention to our organization’s needs. We wanted to diversify our intern pool and by working with SMR we achieved that goal. Our recent pool of SMR-selected Nordson BUILDS Scholars includes 47% women and 46% students of color. Through this program, SMR is helping Nordson drive talent to our company and industry. We would highly recommend SMR to any company looking for scholarship management.”
