The goal of this GAANN fellowship program is to make a significant contribution to satisfying the nation's needs for Ph.D.s who are optimally trained to embark on research and teaching careers in mathematics. As part of their degree program, GAANN fellows will: (i) complete mathematics courses to satisfy degree course requirements, (ii) participate in program professional development activities, (iii) complete a supervised teaching experience, and (iv) conduct thesis research in mathematics. Fellows who aspire to academic careers will be encouraged to complete the Tech to Teaching Faculty Preparation courses.
Note: The fellowship consists of an award of financial aid. Acceptance of subsidized loans and other fellowships will reduce the financial need and possibly decrease eligibility for GAANN support. Students must be appointed as a teaching or research assistantship in order to received a GAANN fellowship.
