UNT hosted more than 125 McNair Scholars at the 15th annual Texas National McNair Scholars Research Conference this February.

McNair Scholars Programs are funded by the U.S. Department of Education at 158 universities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. UNT's McNair program is celebrating its 20th year and has served 246 students. The programs prepare undergraduate students — many who are the first in their families to attend a college or university — for doctoral study through research and other scholarly activities.
