Julia Broderick Scholarship

About the 2010/11 Julia Broderick Scholarship Award

Julia Broderick embodied all that technical communicators should be: intelligent, inquisitive, and enthusiastic. She was renowned for her adeptness in documenting the complexities of hardware and software and went out of her way to coach new writers. She maintained a cheerful disposition during her battle with cancer and was an inspiration to everyone who knew her.

The STC Canada West Coast Julia Broderick Scholarship was established to reward deserving students who embody Julia’s legacy of excellence, determination, and devotion to the technical communication.

Eligibility is extended to all students enrolled in a post-secondary writing program who wish to pursue a career in technical communication. A scholarship of $750 will be awarded to a successful applicant to help establish a career in the profession after graduation.
