George Kozmetsky Memorial Scholarship

The IC² Institute at The University of Texas at Austin has created the George Kozmetsky Memorial Scholarship specifically for full-time University of Texas employees who are admitted to its MSTC Program. Beginning with the entering class of 2010, admitted UT employees may apply for a $20,000 tuition scholarship for the one-year MSTC Program. Up to two George Kozmetsky Memorial Scholarship awards will be made by the IC² Institute’s Executive Committee each program year.

To be considered for the George Kozmetsky Memorial Scholarship, admitted UT employees should send a letter to the program director stating (1) how the University of Texas’ technology commercialization initiatives would benefit by their earning the MSTC degree, and (2) how they can contribute to strengthening institutional relationships between their organization or unit and the IC² Institute.

The scholarship application deadline is February 15.
