The
Gates Millennium Scholarship Program
This program,
funded by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation,
was established to provide outstanding low income minority students
with an opportunity to complete an undergraduate college education
in any discipline area of interest.
Continuing
scholars may request funding for a graduate degree program in
one of the following discipline areas: education, engineering,
library science, mathematics, public health or science.
In
addition to increasing access to higher education for these
underrepresented groups, GMS also provides leadership training.
Through participation in a comprehensive leadership development
program, Scholars enhance academic and leadership skills, which
prepare them to assume important roles in their professions
and in their communities.
