1 . Each year, Boston University proudly celebrates the very best in academics, innovation, and teaching through the awarding of University-wide honors and in our support of applicants for prestigious (有声望的) national scholarships. The following showcase the growing list of opportunities and resources Boston University makes available to students to assist them in research, scholarship and their continued pursuit of excellence.
Harold C. Case scholarship
The Harold C. Case scholarship is offered to outstanding Boston University juniors for support of their senior year. Case scholarships recognize scholarly achievements as well as extracurricular activities that contribute to the University.
Scholarship recipients (领受者) receive between $1,000 and full tuition depending on financial need. Funds can only be applied to undergraduate study. In most application cycles 10-12 recipients are selected.
Dean Elsbeth Melville scholarship
The Dean Elsbeth Melille scholarship was established in 1978 to honor Dean Melville’s “splendid and varied contribution” to the education and lives of women at Boston University. Only two scholarships are awarded each year to top-ranked women in the junior class.
Scholarship recipients receive a minimum of $1,000 depending on financial need. Funds can only be applied to undergraduate study.
Clare Boothe Luce undergraduate scholarships
The Clare Boothe Luce program of the Henry Luce Foundation supports a limited number of Undergraduate Scholarships for women students in the fields of the physical and life sciences, mathematics, engineering, and computer science.
Provost’s scholars award
The Provost’s scholars awards celebrate the achievements of students who have demonstrated their willingness in their first two years of college to stretch themselves intellectually (智力上), to push beyond what they already know they can do, to take significant risks by pursuing the unknown and unpredictable - in short, to demonstrate the spirit of a true scholar at a research university.
Up to 20 awards are given per year, each carrying $1000 of funding for research/creative activity expenses such as travel to conferences and archives (档案馆) or for research-related equipment and supplies.
