McNair Scholars Program

The McNair Scholars Program, made possible through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, supports undergraduate students’ scholarly activities throughout the academic year and summer.

The McNair Scholars Program prepares qualified undergraduates for entrance to a PhD program in all fields of study. The objective of the program is to provide first-generation/low-income students with academically enriching experiences and mentoring that facilitate graduate school admission and successful doctoral degree attainment.
