2015 Goldwater Scholarship – application now open! – Renée Crown University Honors Program

(cross-posted on the CFSA blog)

Science, Math, and Engineering students:

The competition is open for the 2015 Goldwater Scholarship and we hope that you might consider applying. Applicants are sophomores or juniors, US citizens, have engaged in research, and have the potential for a successful career in the fields of science, math, or engineering. Goldwater is interested in future researchers, so pre-med students may not qualify unless considering the M.D./PH.D. joint degree.

We were thrilled to have a Goldwater Scholar, Luke Strauskulage ’15 (Biotechnology) and Honorable Mention, Samantha Usman ’16 (Physics and Mathematics) in 2014. Both Luke and Samantha are members of the Honors Program.
