What is the McNair Program?

 

The Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program prepares qualified undergraduates for graduate school entry, with the primary goal of increasing the attainment of the Ph.D. Our Scholars are represented by students from underrepresented segments of society in graduate education. The McNair Program supports graduate school-bound Scholars by focusing on three areas: academic research, graduate school preparation, and personal and professional development.
