A Word from the University Presidents

 


Schools supported by ARCS at OHSU

"ARCS helps support the development of Oregon State University scientists and the next generation of problem-solvers for Oregon, the nation and the world. As a former graduate student myself, I know how vital this support is and thank ARCS Oregon and its members for helping so many students."

Dr. Jayathi Y. Murthy
President, Oregon State University
Colleges supported by ARCS at OSU

"At the university of Oregon, we support the needs of Oregon's industries, in part through the training of our STEM students. A degree from the UO should be a launchpad for students who have developed the skills that prepare them to contribute, innovate, and lead in the modern workplace and in our broader society. ARCS Foundation Oregon is critically important to our ability to maintain our pipeline of talented and inquisitive minds. ARCS awards allow us to recruit and retain the most outstanding scholars from across the U.S. We deeply appreciate the generous donors who allow ARCS Scholars to pursue their passion and help find solutions to our world's most difficult challenges."

University Support Through ARCS Scholar Awards

An Oregon ARCS Scholar Award is a prestigious, unrestricted award of $18,000 ($6,000 per year for three years) that provides an essential tool for recruiting and retaining top students to Oregon. Lead researchers depend on graduate students to bring fresh ideas and perspectives to their labs and to perform the day to day experiments necessary for discovery. OHSU, OSU and UO compete with other outstanding universities to attract promising PhD candidates. ARCS awards make admission offers more desirable.
