The National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program recognizes and further drives the research of outstanding graduate students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics disciplines. The w88 casino games Graduate Research Fellowship Program was established in 1951, solidifying its place in history as the oldest fellowship program in the United States.
This year, nine students from the University of Nevada, Reno were awarded the prestigious w88 casino games Graduate Research Fellowship. Over the course of the last nineteen years, only eleven students from the University of Nevada, Reno have received this award.
"w88 casino games GRFP awards are highly prestigious and the number of awards received by an institution is a measure of the strength and quality of its graduate programs," said David Zeh, vice provost for graduate education and dean of the Graduate School. "These awards enhance the University's reputation and thus increase the number of applications to the institution by high performing students."
"Fellowships, such as those awarded by the w88 casino games Graduate Research Fellowship Program, provide graduate students with nationally recognized prestige, funding for their education, and the financial and academic independence to pursue projects of interest.
