The Graduate School

For 2019 Niner Nation Gives, the Graduate School has two priorities: Graduate Student Fellowships and the Center for Graduate Life. Both are of critical importance to the University’s delivery of high-quality graduate education that focuses on cutting-edge research, scholarship, and other creative activity that contribute to economic, social and cultural advancement.

The Center for Graduate Life is the heart of graduate education at UNC Charlotte and provides an intellectually stimulating and rich learning environment in which graduate students from across disciplines can build community and cultivate a sense of identification with the University as a whole. The CGL strives to fulfill its mission by providing a welcoming space set aside exclusively for graduate students, as well as through a wide range of programming developed, implemented, and promoted specifically for and by graduate students.

The Claudia M. Reynolds Fellowship is a new award established through a gift from Claudia, to support and encourage high quality graduate students at UNC Charlotte. The Claudia Reynolds Fellowship is open to continuing doctoral or master’s students in any field of study with preference given to non-traditional students who have a desire to make a significant contribution to society by completing the graduate degree.

Please give today to make a difference in supporting graduate education at UNC Charlotte.

 The first 49 gifts to the Graduate School will be entered into a drawing to win the UNC Charlotte themed quilt below.
