“As a leading research university, Emory University attracts and competes for the best and most promising doctoral students. These students are tomorrow’s leaders— creative, determined, and innovative. The generous and empowering support of ARCS Foundation enriches the lives and development of these students and helps pave the way for them to make discoveries that will change lives for the better. On behalf of Emory University, I would like to thank ARCS Foundation for another year of outstanding partnership.
“Thanks to the pioneering women of the ARCS Foundation and the sponsorships they have offered to thousands of our country’s top undergraduate and graduate students, 9 of 10 ARCS Scholars after they graduate are hard at work in their sponsored fields launching startup companies, devising new technologies, and expanding our knowledge. Since 1992, GeorgiaTech’s ARCS Scholars have been the recipients of more than $1.9 million from the ARCS Atlanta Chapter.Today, we celebrate 17 graduate students receiving ARCS Scholar awards, and we offer our deep gratitude to the ARCS Foundation-Atlanta Chapter, whose transformative philanthropy continues to enable our very best graduate students to realize their great potential.”
“ARCS scholar awards have supported the scholarly efforts of 125 high achieving science and mathematics majors at Morehouse for over 26 years. It is an honor that each year one student will receive the prestigious Glenn Morehouse Leadership Award, recognizing both outstanding scholarship and demonstrated leadership skills. Building future leaders of the country is an important goal of the college.Through its support for both undergraduate and graduate students who aspire to careers in science or mathematics, ARCS Foundation is making a major contribution to increasing the number of American citizens who pursue careers in STEM. And, for that we are truly grateful.”
"The University of Georgia is pleased to be a recipient of ARCS Foundation support for graduate students in the biomedical and health sciences. These prestigious awards not only provide significant and flexible direct financial support to the award winners during their training period, but also create invaluable life-long connections to the ARCS Foundation membership."
