STEM Scholars Program
You are drawn to study science because you want to know how the world works. You have an idea about what your chosen major can do. But in this day and age, specializing may not get you where you want to go—what happens if you can work with other scientists and engineers—those outside your discipline? What do you think you can achieve?
This is the purpose of the STEM Scholars Program: supporting students majoring in STEM fields, such as Biology, Chemistry and Engineering, where in your first year you will be encouraged to connect with peers who think like you do. You'll also live in the highly-coveted Northside Commons residence hall, in a wing specifically set aside for your fellow STEM scholars. Then, over the following three years, your chances to interact with your friends and fellow scientists and engineers will expand beyond those in your classes or your residence hall. Working collaboratively and combining your knowledge from multiple fields, you will be supported and encouraged to identify, understand, and directly impact real-world problems in our immediate community and beyond.
At the end of four years, you will have a deeper understanding of how you can work with other scientists and scholars to apply your specialized knowledge and, ultimately, change the world. Applications will be available on January 15. Our priority deadline is May 31, 2019, for priority consideration this fall.
