Doctoral Scholars Program
- Purpose
The SREB Doctoral Scholar Program addresses the present underrepresentation of minorities in postsecondary education by encouraging ethnic minority students to pursue doctoral degrees for careers as college teachers. The program addresses the critical shortage of minorities with a Ph.D. to fill faculty and administrative positions at Kentucky universities, and community and technical colleges.

- Description
The Southern Regional Education Board Doctoral Scholars Program is part of the nationwide initiative “Compact for Faculty Diversity.” The program provides minority doctoral scholars with academic and financial support as well as personal guidance, support, and counseling. The participating scholars have two primary obligations upon selection to the program. The scholar is expected to focus full-time attention to the completion of the academic requirements and is expected to attend and participate in the annual Doctoral Scholars Program/Compact for Faculty Diversity Institute.
