A call for Graduate Student Research Assistantship (GSRA) applications is available through North Dakota Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (ND EPSCoR). The GSRA program is designed to increase opportunities for graduates of the North Dakota University System baccalaureate universities and tribal colleges to obtain master’s or doctoral degrees in science, engineering and mathematics at North Dakota’s two research universities, NDSU and University of North Dakota. American Indian and Alaskan Native applicants must have graduated from one of the North Dakota tribal colleges or have been a participant in ND EPSCoR’s Nurturing American Tribal Undergraduate Research and Education (NATURE) program.
Faculty and staff are invited to recruit students. Review of applications begins Feb. 10, 2011, with a final deadline of noon, March 10, 2011. Program information and application requirements can be found at www.ndepscor.nodak.edu.
North Dakota EPSCoR is a federally and state funded program designed to improve the ability of university researchers to compete more effectively for federal, regional and private research grants in the sciences, engineering and mathematics.
