The McNair Scholars Program prepares participants for doctoral studies through involvement in research and other scholarly activities. Participants are from low-income/first-generation backgrounds, or underrepresented groups  and have demonstrated strong academic potential.  Each year, McNair Scholars participate in academic year and summer activities that include research and teaching experiences.  The goal is to increase the attainment of Ph.D. degrees by students from underrepresented segments of society.

The McNair Scholars Program is fully funded by a  four-year $900,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Education.  Indiana University contributes $732,080 in cost share funds over the same four-year period.
