Support the Mowbray Scholars Program

The Mowbray Scholars program honors the memory of MSU’s first African-American female graduate, Myrtle Craig Mowbray, who had an important career in education and public service.

Each scholar receives $7,500 to plan their own course of travel and research. This prepares some of the nation’s finest undergraduate students for success by funding opportunities anywhere in the world related to their career goals.

Mowbray Scholars have used their funding to support a diverse set of study abroad and research programs, including: 

• Teacher education in South Africa
• Intensive language study in Japan
• Energy technology in Australia
• Rainforest research in Nicaragua
• Orchid research in Germany and Costa Rica
• Undergraduate fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota
• AIDS education and research in Zimbabwe
• Photo communication in the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom
