• Bonder Scholarship for Applied Operations Research in Health Services
  sponsored by the Health Applications Section of INFORMS. Doctoral candidates, particularly those at the beginning of their programs, with an interest in the application of process modeling and OR analyses to issues in health care design, delivery, or operations are encouraged to apply.

Boeing Scholarships/Assistantships

• Assistantships - Ph.D. in Logistics and Supply Chain Management
  Stipends for research and teaching assistantships (nine months/20 hours per week) are awarded on a competitive basis. Students typically receive $20,000 annually from an $18,000 stipend and a $2000 performance-based award. Educational fees and tuition are waived for graduate assistants.

  In addition, funds from the Boeing Company Scholars Program in Business at UMSL are used to supplement the stipends above. For 2009-2010 two Boeing scholarships are available for new entrants into the LSCM Ph.D. program.

  Assistantships may be with or through the Center for Transportation Studies, the Center for Business & Industrial Studies, or with logistics & supply chain faculty in the College of Business Administration.
