Sponsorship Opportunities
The University of Maryland’s 23rd National Conference for McNair Scholars and
Undergraduate Research (March 17-20, 2022) is an academic forum that attracts over 250
undergraduate student researchers, faculty, graduate school recruiters, and businesses
from across the country. The Conference allows McNair Scholars to present independent
research, to generate ideas about solutions to global and community challenges, and to
network with their peers, graduate school recruiters, and business representatives.
Partnering with the McNair Scholars Program is a strategic initiative to enhance
business visibility and efforts to strengthen communities through education.
The Ronald E. McNair Post-baccalaureate Achievement Program is a 501(c)(3) Department of
Education funded program that serves high academic achievers who are low-income, first
generation students, or students who are traditionally underrepresented in graduate
school. The mission of the McNair Scholars Program is to prepare and assist its Scholars
in matriculating into doctoral programs and earning Ph.D.s
