About the Goldwater Scholarship
The Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Program recognizes the very best science scholars in our nation and was established by Congress in 1986 in honor of the former U.S. Senator. Ohio University’s three Goldwater scholarship recipients competed in a field of 1,110 applicants majoring in mathematics, engineering and other science-related areas. Nationwide, only 317 students were selected as Goldwater Scholars. Winners receive a one- or two-year scholarship, which includes up to $7,500 per year to assist with academic expenses.
Since each university can nominate only four students for Goldwater consideration, Ohio University’s tally of three winners underscores an already impressive distinction. The success of our students in garnering such nationally competitive awards is a direct result of their commitment to their studies as well as the mentorship support and encouragement they receive from dedicated professors across all academic departments on our campus.
Karen Eichstadt, associate professor of chemistry and biochemistry, serves as the Ohio University Goldwater Scholarship faculty representative and coordinator of the award.
