Graduate Student Support

Graduate students at The University of Texas at El Paso are changing the world. They’re making bold advances in humanities, health, science, engineering, security, business, and sustainability.

As UTEP continues to grow, so must our commitment to providing outstanding education to exceptional students from every background. Your generosity provides vital support to our students and creates life-changing opportunities for thousands of future leaders and innovators.

The UTEP Graduate School is dedicated to making a transformational impact in our region, the nation, and beyond. At the core of UTEP’s remarkable success are diverse and talented graduate scholars pioneering the frontiers of knowledge and solving real-world challenges. Your support of graduate students is essential to provide access to the experiences at UTEP that will allow them to change the world. 

When you make a gift to the Graduate School, you are supporting graduate students who will have an impact in their local and global communities through their advanced skills and research. Gifts like these have supported students like José, who is completing his Ph.D. in Rhetoric and Composition.

As a borderland resident from Ciudad Juarez, José is particularly grateful for the mentorship and support he's received while it UTEP, stating, "Unwavering support has been instrumental in shaping my academic journey..." 

The generosity of our alumni, faculty, staff, students, and friends provides meaningful opportunities to our graduate students. We hope you will Raise Your Pick and contribute to our Graduate School Student Support Endowment on April 17. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference! 

"With the fellowships and the scholarships I have received, I can not only focus on my studies, but I can also financially help my family and improve our community resilience through research.”   Mariana Benitez Ph.D. Candidate Civil Engineering
