NSF Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM)

Limited Submissions

This program makes grants to institutions of higher education to support scholarships for academically talented students demonstrating financial need, enabling them to enter the STEM workforce or STEM graduate school following completion of an associate, baccalaureate, or graduate-level degree in science, technology, engineering or mathematics disciplines. Grantee institutions are responsible for selecting scholarship recipients, reporting demographic information about student scholars, and managing the S-STEM project at the institution.

 

The program does not make scholarship awards directly to students; students should contact their institution’s Office of Financial Aid for this and other scholarship opportunities.

Application Instructions

Please submit a two-page letter of intent with a list of all anticipated investigators, description of proposed aims and approach, Biosketch of the PI, and a letter of support from the Dean or Chair to research@uw.edu by 5:00 PM Thursday, April 10, 2014. Full proposals are due to the sponsor on 8/12/14, so you will need to have your materials in to the Office of Sponsored Programs by 8/5/14 for processing, if given the go ahead by the Proposal Review Committee.
