McNair Graduate Opportunity Program

Welcome to the McNair Graduate Opportunity Program

The Purpose of the McNair Graduate Opportunity Program is to improve effective preparation for doctoral study to low-income, first-generation college students and students from groups that are underrepresented in graduate education.
 
The Ronald E. McNair Post Baccalaureate Achievement Program (called the McNair Graduate Opportunity Program) has been established in honor of the second African American in space, the late Ronald E. McNair. As the last of the U.S. Senate's TRIO programs, the McNair Scholar's Program maintains the spirit of its namesake by encouraging highly talented students to pursue advanced degrees.
