California Scents Scholarship 

In 2004, it was with great enthusiasm that the UC Center for Entrepreneurship Education & Research announced its first undergraduate scholarship for UC business students with a concentration in entrepreneurship.  The scholarship was made possible due to the generous support of Mr. and Mrs. Gus Doppes, co-founders of California Scents.

Mr. Doppes, a 1970 UC graduate, established the scholarship fund to encourage the study of entrepreneurial business, and to recognize and support the academic achievements of students with a concentration in this field.  All full-time undergraduate students enrolled in the College of Business who have a focus in Entrepreneurship/Family Business are eligible to apply.

Acton Foundation Scholarship

In 2008, Dr. Charles Matthews, Executive Director of the E-Center, was one of 27 teachers from across the country chosen for an Acton Foundation Excellence in Entrepreneurship Education Award.  As part of the award ceremony and a two-day seminar in Austin, Matthews was invited to bring along one of his top entrepreneurship students.  He chose David Roth for the honor, and the two attended the award event in Austin on February 1-2.  Roth received a $1000 Acton Foundation Scholarship to apply toward his education costs and the chance to participate in case discussions led by Master Teachers from the Acton School of Business.
