NSF GRFP Support for Engineering Graduate Students

Presentation from 2022 Consortium on Graduate Communication Summer Institute

This session will give an overview of programming that helped raise our graduate student acceptance rate on the NSF GRFP from the national average (14-16%) to more than 50%. The presentation will focus on a look at the developments of school level programming for engineering graduate students over the past few years alongside changing, and at times absent, university level support. As we look at further changes, potential expansion and partnership at the university level for the future, how can we sustain and perhaps extend this success and balance complementary offerings?
