Author
  • Ashley Garrin (Iowa State University)

Abstract

The Iowa State McNair Program works to increase the number of underrepresented, low-income, and first-generation students obtaining a doctorate degree. Preparing undergraduate students for doctoral studies is achieved through a faculty-guided research project, graduate school preparation, and other scholarly activities. In this session interested students, faculty and staff will have the opportunity to learn about the components of the McNair Program from current scholars. Topics will include: student research projects, the McNair courses, and their exposure to the graduate school application process. A brief question and answer time will follow.
