MURAP Alumni

We have an alumni database of 281 students from the years 1989-2006. Thirty-three percent of MURAP alums have enrolled in graduate programs in the social sciences, humanities, or fine arts. Twenty-eight percent have completed M.A. degrees and eleven percent have completed Ph.D. programs. Some examples of MURAP alumni educational and career pursuits are shown in the table below.

The aim of MURAP is to have students successfully complete their advanced degree programs and enter the ranks of the professorate. The success of the program can be gauged quantitatively by the proportion of MURAP students who pursue graduate studies in the arts, humanities, and social sciences.

It is therefore important that MURAP maintains contact with students after their summer experience and continue to provide encouragement and support to them with respect to doctoral studies. To pursue this, we have developed a systematic "tracking" process in which we ideally want to follow students at least six years after their summer at UNC-CH.
