Student Funding Opportunities
Graduate Teaching Assistantships** are offered on a very limited basis by the Systems Engineering Department.
Graduate Research Assistantships** are offered by individual faculty members. Please contact faculty directly to inquire about available openings.
**The Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering pays differential tuition for all graduate students on a research assistantship (GRA), teaching assistantship (GTA), or other assistantship (GSA).
On-campus and distance students are eligible to submit to the University-wide scholarship application (CSUSA) each winter for consideration for funding in the following academic year.
The deadline is March 1, and although a FAFSA is not required for merit-based scholarships, it is recommended for need-based scholarships.
More information can be found at the CSUSA website.
