Three Michigan State University undergraduate students are recipients of the nationally competitive Goldwater Scholarship for 2022.
Each year, the Barry Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Foundation seeks scholars committed to a career in science, mathematics or engineering who display intellectual intensity and who have the potential for significant future contribution in their chosen field. The recipients receive funding for undergraduate tuition and living expenses.
Since the scholarship program began in 1989, 52 MSU students have been recognized with the honor.
