Brittney Coleman and Nathan Oluwagbemiga Larinde, honors students at the
University of Alabama at Birmingham, have been selected to receive the UNCF/Merck Science Initiative scholarship. The prestigious award is given to only 15 undergraduate students nationally each year, and UAB has had 14 winners since 2008.
UNCF/Merck Undergraduate Science Research Scholarship Awards are intended to help African-American undergraduate students further their science education and pursue science and engineering careers.
Both Coleman, a junior in the
School of Engineering, and Larinde, a junior in the
College of Arts and Sciences, are members of the
UAB Honors College’s
Science and Technology Honors Program.
