Program focuses on the preparation of undergraduate students who qualify as either low-income/first-generation college students or members of groups underrepresented in graduate education to pursue doctoral degrees.
Offers a number of benefits, such as: summer and academic year research funding, assistance connecting with faculty research mentors, hands-on guidance and navigation through the graduate school application process, first-hand exposure to individuals who have earned PhD’s in their field of study, and the opportunity to attend research conferences (fully funded).
Link to program’s web page can be found at http://mcnair.umbc.edu/ where all pertinent information can be found. All inquiries from interested students can be sent to me at marks2@umbc.edu.
Interested? Apply as soon as possible! Deadline is Friday, March 10th.
