A grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) provides support services from the SREB-State Doctoral Scholars Program to minority graduate students in the NSF Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) program. The grant supports an initiative between the AGEP program and the SREB-State Doctoral Scholars Program (a partnership that includes SREB states, other regional educational organizations, and federal and foundation programs that stress strengthening minority graduate education). The grant from the National Science Foundation will achieve two broad goals for AGEP scholars: 1) increase the likelihood of completing a Ph.D. in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics, and 2) encourage and prepare scholars for a career as a successful college faculty member.
By joining forces with SREB/Compact, AGEP alliances will encourage their minority graduate students nationwide to earn doctoral degrees.
