Serving our state. Serving our students. All thanks to generous donors.

Eugene T. Moore Scholarships, Teacher Residency Awards and Doctoral Student Fellowships provide financial assistance that enables student success

Thanks to the generosity of our principal donor, Darla Moore, our College is able to award scholarships on both the undergraduate and graduate levels to increase the number of students from underrepresented and underserved communities throughout programs in our College. This financial assistance encourages students from across the state to pursue careers in education and allied fields, in many cases, bring their expertise and passion back to rural, underserved areas of the state.

Eugene T. Moore Undergraduate Education Scholarships

The goal of the Moore Undergraduate Education Scholarships for first-time freshmen and transfer students is to increase the number of students from underrepresented and underserved communities who are enrolled in and will graduate from any undergraduate education program in Clemson’s College of Education.

The College awards six scholarships to first-time freshmen ($2,000 per student per semester) renewable for up to a total of eight semesters of undergraduate study from the first term of enrollment based on eligibility. For transfer students, the College also awards six scholarships renewable for up to a total of six semesters of undergraduate study from the first term of enrollment based on eligibility. Scholarships for transfer students are awarded in the amount of $1,500 per student per semester.

We are happy to introduce these students so you can learn more about their motivations for pursuing a College of Education degree as well as a career in education.

Eugene T. Moore Teacher Residency Awards

The goal of the Eugene T. Moore Teacher Residency Fellowships is to increase the number of students from underrepresented and underserved communities who are enrolled in the teacher residency program in the Clemson University College of Education. The College awards seven living stipend awards to teacher residents in their fifth year of the teacher residency program based on eligibility. Stipends are awarded in the amount of $3,000.

Along with the residency awards, this funding also supports mentor teachers working with residents. The funding waives graduate school application fees for courses necessary to complete mentor training in the program. In addition, it reduces tuition and provides stipends to develop teacher leaders in school districts and schools in existing and new partnerships. Educators trained through graduate coursework on mentoring and instructional coaching more effectively develop teacher candidates and induction teachers.

We invite you to learn more about the recipients of our Eugene T. Moore Teacher Residency Awards.

Eugene T. Moore Doctoral Fellowships

The goal of the Moore Doctoral Student Fellowships is to recruit and then retain the top national scholars and educators to work with faculty and students in the College of Education. These fellowships will ensure that recipients earn a total of $30,000 per year (including assistantship) plus tuition remission. Additionally, beginning in their third year of study, all Moore Doctoral Fellows will be eligible for up to $1,000 in travel to support research.
