Student Development and Recruitment receives NSF "Bridge to the Doctorate" Grant
Student Development and Recruitment (SD&R) for the College of Engineering has received a highly competitive National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to support twelve “Bridge to the Doctorate” (BD) graduate students majoring in the sciences, mathematics and engineering fields. The students will begin the program at UC Davis this Fall. The 2006-08 BD program supplements NSF's nationwide Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) programs. Through the BD program, NSF seeks to continue its goal of increasing the number of underrepresented students interested in pursuing doctoral degrees in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The BD program will provide a $30,000 stipend, an additional $10,500 for fees, and $2,500 for professional development per year for the first two years of graduate study in science, mathematics or engineering at UC Davis.
