Three students supported by University Honors College research grants were recently awarded National Consortium for Measurement and Signature Intelligence Research (NCMR) scholarship grants, disbursed by the National Science Foundation. This is the second year in a row that three UAA students received the awards. Three is the maximum number that can be nominated by a school per year, so to have all six from UAA receive the award in the span of two years is especially impressive. Meagan Byrne, Mallory Givens and Alexandra West each received a scholarship grant of $10,000 for the 2010-2011 academic year to help with tuition, books and living expenses. All three students are members of the University Honors College and were selected in part because of significant undergraduate research experiences at UAA.
