Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Bridge to the Doctorate
This program is aimed at increasing the quality and quantity of students successfully completing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) graduate degree programs.
Support is provided for new graduate students who have an undergraduate degree in one of the STEM fields from a university participating in the national Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP). LSAMP supports sustained and comprehensive approaches that facilitate achievement of the long-term goal of increasing the number of students who earn doctorates in STEM fields, particularly those from populations underrepresented in STEM fields.
President's Graduate Opportunity Program (PGOP)
The purpose of the PGOP is to recruit, retain, and support African-American students engaged in graduate study leading to a doctoral degree from Auburn University. Successful applicants will receive a $10,000 PGOP Fellowship in addition to a stipend of the minimum amount set by the Provost's Office for 25% FTE each year.
SREB Doctoral Scholars Program
The program particularly encourages applicants who seek a Ph.D. in a field with low minority representation (science, mathematics, engineering, and science or math education). Applicants must plan to become full-time faculty members upon completion of their doctoral program. Each student must be admitted into at least one approved Ph.D. program before becoming eligible to apply to our program.
