TIPS Scholars Program
Winthrop's TIPS Scholars Program (Transdisciplinary Approach to Identity, Persistence, and Success in STEM) addresses
the national need for well-educated scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians
by supporting the retention and graduation of high-achieving, low-income students
with demonstrated financial need. The program offers scholarships to qualified students.
TIPS Scholars receive scholarships of up to $15,000 per year and can total up to $60,000 over 4 years. More information and application materials can be found at the TIPS website.
Eagle STEM Scholarship Program
Winthrop's Eagle STEM Scholars Program educates and trains undergraduate biochemistry
and chemistry students for direct matriculation into biomedical science and chemistry
PhD programs or for direct entry into graduate health professional schools. Selected
scholars are first-generation undergraduate college students with financial need or
members of groups traditionally underrepresented in the sciences. The ultimate goal
of the Eagle STEM Scholars program is to increase the number of doctoral degree awards
for students from underrepresented segments of society. More information and application
materials can be found at the Eagle STEM website.
