Notes:

  1. Professors can provide more than the minimum RA stated in this funding information if they wish.
  2. Policy on scholarship integration into student funding
    • For scholarships up to $5,000 (the base), the student's total funding will increase by the scholarship amount.
    • For scholarships above the base, the student's total funding will increase by the base plus a third of the scholarship amount above the base. RA and MIE fellowship contributions will be reduced.
    • Foreign government scholarships will first reduce MIE fellowship, then RA.
    • In the case of multiple scholarships, they are added together before applying the above calculations.
