Student Resources
Fellowships, Grants and Assistantships
The School of Engineering has several assistantship positions available that are annual, renewable and include tuition and a monthly stipend. The assistantships include responsibilities in teaching or research.
SOCHE will award up to 15 three-year fellowships to new doctoral students studying engineering or computer science at one of the three member institutions — the Air Force Institute of Technology, the University of Dayton or Wright State University. These fellowships support full-time, research-based doctoral study and will be awarded to candidates with exceptional demonstrated capability and aptitude. Awards include a stipend of $27,500 plus full tuition for three years of study and research.
Full-tuition scholarships are available for both part-time and full-time graduate students in engineering. For highly qualified, full-time doctoral students, opportunities exist for full-tuition with yearly stipend. Applications for the SOCHE Scholarship will ONLY be accepted online. Supporting documentation may be submitted to your home institution.
Make a positive impact on the community while exploring engineering concepts. The School of Engineering Learn, Lead and Serve (LLS) Fund encourages students to perform domestic and international research while serving community organizations. Individual grants range from $1,000 to $2,000, and higher amounts are available for team projects. Applications are accepted each semester.
