National Science Foundation-funded Scholarships

The 哔咔漫画 hosts an S-STEM (鈥淪cholarships in STEM鈥�) scholarship project, funded by the National Science Foundation. The project provides scholarships to students with demonstrated financial need pursuing master鈥檚 degrees in Geosciences, Environmental Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, and Integrative Biology. The theme of the project is 鈥淢anaging the Nitrogen Cycle,鈥� so scholarship recipients must have an interest in this topic and be willing to participate in a range of project activities. Applications for this scholarship are submitted in conjunction with standard applications to the participating academic programs listed above. 

Scholarships are need-based, provide up to $6,400 per year, and do not affect eligibility for Teaching or Research Assistantships. Geosciences M.S. students receiving scholarships participate in an interdisciplinary program of professional development, community engagement, mentoring, and cohort development with graduate-student peers in Integrative Biology, Environmental Engineering, and Water Resources Engineering. More information and scholarship applications can be found鈥痮n the NSF STEM page.

Tharp Research Fellowship Program

The School of Geosciences has funds available through the Fred L. and Helen M. Tharp Endowed Scholarship Fund to support graduate research. The fellowships are awarded as a one-time lump sum payment. The funding is awarded on a competitive basis.  The Tharp Fellowship coincides with the Summer TA Application and provides additional funding opportunity for the Summer semester.
