- The Diversity Scholars Research Program is aimed
at attracting academically talented students pursuing an education in the research setting who will
contribute to the diversity of IUPUI. This program began in the fall of 1997 and the first graduates
finished in 2001. Students in the program are part of a group of undergraduate scholars who benefit
from the research activities, individual support and scholarship funding leading to graduation with a
four year degree. The research component is designed no only to acclimate students to a research setting,
but also to actively involve them in undergraduate research in preparation for graduate studies. Research
mentors from IUPUI faculty and the corporate sector help these scholars to structure their research
programs. This award is made to students in a variety of majors at IUPUI and is highly competitive.
