Two Michigan State University students have earned the prestigious Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship. This places MSU at 62 Goldwater Scholars since the award’s inception.
The Goldwater Foundation seeks sophomores and juniors committed to a research career in STEM fields with the potential for significant future contributions in their chosen field. The award provides $7,500 per year in funding for undergraduate tuition and living expenses.
“It is a privilege and a pleasure to congratulate Lauren Jin and Aswath Karai on their selection as Goldwater Scholars,” said MSU President Kevin M. Guskiewicz, Ph.D. “Their dedication to the pursuit of research careers – confronting the questions and challenges facing our society – is what Michigan State’s long legacy of excellence, innovation, and impact is built upon.”
