This program offers a five-year fellowship that includes three years of financial support, with an annual stipend of $34,000 and a cost of education allowance of $12,000 to the institution.
Seven students and alumni from the University of Missouri (MU) were recently selected for the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program, while five others received honorable mention. Among the recipients are individuals pursuing a variety of disciplines such as mechanical engineering, wildlife and fisheries science, neuroscience, biochemistry, biological sciences, and chemical engineering. Honorable mentions were given to those studying psychology, pathobiology, plant, insect and microbial sciences, biological sciences, and human development and family science.
The program aims to recognize and support outstanding graduate students in STEM fields by providing financial assistance and opportunities for furthering research and academic pursuits. The seven MU recipients will receive funding for three years with an annual stipend of $34,000 along with a cost of education allowance of $12,000 to their institution. This program provides a unique opportunity for these students to pursue their passions in STEM while receiving financial support to help them achieve their goals.
