What is the Solutions Scholars program?
The Solutions Scholars program admitted a cohort of approximately 20 students each fall. These students were committed to addressing key challenges facing our world - such as immigration, inequities facing women, climate change, poverty, and human rights. Through a combination of course instruction, experiential learning, research, and internship experiences, Solutions Scholars developed the skills needed to help create solutions to the most urgent issues of our time. Each Solutions Scholar was supported with a $2,000 scholarship disbursed over one year.
