Medical Institute Asks Lehigh
To Compete For Science Grants
By Rita T. Malone
Lehigh University Writer's Group
Lehigh is among 100 universities across the U.S. which
have been invited to compete for $60 million in grants from
the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. The five-year grants
to improve undergraduate science education are expected to
be in the range of $500,000 to $2 million each.
Grants will be awarded for the most creative, effective
and integrated proposals describing programs for students,
faculty and curricula. The universities invited to enter the
competition were chosen based on the number and proportion of graduates over the past decade who went on to
medical school or earned doctorates in biology, chemistry,
physics or mathematics.
Lehigh's proposal will be coordinated by James D.
Gunton, dean of the College of Arts and Science.
