A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty:

The Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program is designed to prepare students who have traditionally been underrepresented in graduate studies for graduate work leading to a Ph.D. As participants in the program, students will have access to skills building courses and tutoring, research experiences with a faculty mentor, and individualized assistance through the graduate school application process. Students must meet the eligibility requirements for the program and must show an interest in attending graduate school. Program participation is limited to only 30 students.

Benefits of Being a McNair Scholar:
Access to individualized advising and career planning
Tutoring available to maintain competitive GPA
Stipend paid for conducting research (also includes room and board)
Assistance with graduate school application process
Financial support for graduate school visits and presentations at professional conferences
Application waivers and fellowships available nationally exclusively for McNair scholars.
