The McNair Scholars Program seeks to help undergraduate students achieve their full potential by encouraging and preparing eligible students in all disciplines for pursuing a Ph.D. McNair participants have a unique opportunity to engage in an in-depth, faculty-guided research project that gives them an edge when applying to graduate school. Faculty mentors work closely with students, preparing them to be leaders in their field of study. Participants also receive opportunities for academic counseling, financial aid, tutoring, seminars and graduate school visits to prepare for graduate study. Obtaining a Ph.D. increases one’s earning power and job opportunities and McNair scholars are part of a supportive community which includes other scholars who share the same aspirations. Congratulations to our new scholars. The McNair program has openings for scholars for the spring semester.
