The Education Scholarship Fund was established in 2011 to provide support to members who seek graduate education in research administration.
NCURA is committed to the development of research administrators. The Education Scholarship Fund is designed to provide access to funds which would otherwise be unavailable through the generous donations of NCURA members. The Fund met its first goal of $100K is 2017 and gave its first scholarships in the Spring of 2018.

I love being back in higher education. It feels like I’ve come home, and I can see a clear pathway to sharing my love of research administration with other people…I am looking forward to increasing my involvement in NCURA.
Simply put the scholarship would be a great relief… there is no denying that any financial assistance would ease the strains of a growing family.
I want to open the door to more opportunities…and to increase my value in the research administration community.
Amanda Tan, Boston University
I am highly intrigued by the relationship between scientific research and administration, and how it advances our nation’s research enterprise. I look forward to growing as a research administrator with NCURA’s community.
Syliva Bradshaw, Dixie State University
NCURA has given me an ever-expanding network of professionals who I want to emulate by both their extensive knowledge and service rendered. I truly do hope to “pay it forward” as so many others have done for me.
