MCNAIR SCHOLARS AND DIRECTORS VISITATION DAY TUESDAY NOVEMBER 18, 2014
TOM BEVILL ENERGY, MINERAL AND MATERIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH BUILDING ROOM 1000
McNair Scholars interested in pursuing graduate education are cordially invited to attend the McNair Scholars
Visitation Day at The University of Alabama. There will be special sessions for McNair Directors who accompany
their Scholars to the event. For the first time, this event will be held in conjunction with our annual Three
Minute Thesis competition on November 18, 2014. This will give participants the opportunity to see the wide
range of research being done by students at The University of Alabama.
The event is free to all McNair Scholars. Special activities for our McNair guests will begin at 11:00 a.m. and continue until 7:30 p.m. The first 20 McNair Directors who register for the event with their students are eligible for travel reimbursement up to $500.
