Recognizing that diversity of scholars is integral to educational excellence, the University of New Mexico’s Ronald E. McNair Post-baccalaureate Achievement Program seeks to produce scholars and researchers who will more accurately reflect the growing diversity in intellectual perspectives, life experiences, and cultures in academe.

Named after Dr. Ronald E, McNair, one of the first African-American astronauts, the program is committed to increasing the number of students in doctoral degree programs who come from low-income and first generation backgrounds, or who are members of traditionally underrepresented groups in academia, specifically African American, Hispanic/Latino, and American Indian/Alaska Natives.


The McNair Scholars Program benefits from alliances with Departments and the Graduate School at the University of New Mexico federal TRIO* grant from the U.S. Department of Education.
