Dr. Clinton Ray Carpenter NanoCollege Fund
Established by Dr. Clinton Ray Carpenter, this fund was created to provide scholarships to undergraduate students pursuing a bachelor’s degree in the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering who are engineering science or physics graduates of a community college. Preference will be given to students who are engineering science, or physics graduates, of Mohawk Valley Community College in Utica, New York. Since the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering does not presently offer an undergraduate degree, the Carpenter Fund may provide summer internships at the College of Nanocscale Science and Engineering to undergraduate community college students who plan to pursue careers in nanosciences, nanoengineering, and the nanotechnology industry. Upon the establishment of an undergraduate degree program, the Fund shall be devoted to scholarships.

Katherine Belz Groves Memorial Graduate Fellowship in Nanoscale Science
Established through the generosity of Dr. Helene Fulton Belz in memory of her daughter, this fund was established to support a graduate student engaged in innovative education and research at the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering. The fellowship, which is to be awarded on a competitive basis, will fund a student for the period needed to complete the requirements for a doctoral degree, which is typically five years.  Katherine Belz Groves pursued a lifelong interest in studying the group dynamics of education. She established a successful consulting business while also dedicating significant time and effort to helping the disadvantaged through her leadership in a variety of programs, including Chicago's "Share Twenty," in which she tutored inner-city schoolchildren. She moved to New York's Hudson Valley in 1983, where she lived with her husband, CNSE Empire Innovation Professor of Nanoscale Science Dr. Timothy Groves, until her death in 1998.

The John J. Sullivan Graduate Fellowship
Established through the generosity of John J. Sullivan, this fund is awarded to support the research program for graduate students who will be working with Professor Alain Kaloyeros.
