These positions are available exclusively to incoming graduate students from Under-Represented Domestic Minorities (URDMs) as well as U.S. domestic women who are seeking a doctoral degree in Chemistry.

URDM students are defined as American born or naturalized (domestic) students from an under-represented minority, including students of African American, Hispanic/Latino, American Indian, Alaskan native, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, or Asian descent. To receive full consideration for one of these positions, please contact the program coordinator via email (chemistry@uwyo.edu).
