CORNELL UNIVERSITY
Fellowship Name Description
Cornell Engineering Cornell Engineering is offering two years of full scholarship support for underrepresented minorities who are admitted into graduate programs. This includes tuition, stipend and summer support, including the summer before the student formally begins his/her graduate MS/PhD program. After two years, if the student is progressing in a satisfactory way, we will provide further full support by means of Graduate Research Assistantships, Teaching Assistantships or further scholarships. This will continue for the duration of the degree. We encourage visits by prospective MS/PhD minority students to our campus.
