Benefits

  • Work on a significant, multi-semester project in a research lab or company and showcase or publish your work at the Katz School's annual Symposium on Science, Technology and Health
     
  • Scholarship reducing total tuition to $19,000 (domestic) or $35,000 (international)* for your entire graduate degree, start to finish—whether you complete your degree in one or two years

Students applying to any Katz School STEM master's program are automatically considered for the STEM Fellowship. The STEM Fellowship is open to U.S. and international students and is approved for STEM-OPT. 


STEM Fellows may apply external scholarships (e.g., Fulbright, NSF, government support) toward their tuition, but may not combine other scholarships from Yeshiva University or the Katz School with the STEM Fellows scholarship.
