Caltech challenges students intellectually, builds analytical skills, develops character, and cultivates the knowledge needed to inspire and execute powerful ideas.

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

MISSION STATEMENTThe mission of the

California Institute of

Technology is to expand

human knowledge and

benefit society through

research integrated with

education. We investigate

the most challenging,

fundamental problems

in science and technology

in a singularly collegial,

interdisciplinary atmo-

sphere, while educating

outstanding students to

become creative members

of society.

GRADUATE SCHOOL RANKINGS Committed to producing groundbreaking research in science and technology, Caltech consistently ranks high on both academic performance and academic reputation surveys around the world. These ranking agencies include Times Higher Education, Academic Ranking of World Universities (Shanghai), U.S. News & World Report, and the National Research Council (NRC) of the National Academy of Sciences. While each agency’s methodology and results are different, it is clear that Caltech’s graduate programs are ranked among the best in the nation and in many cases, at the top of their field.

FINANCING YOUR EDUCATION In general, doctoral students making satisfactory progress at Caltech receive full tuition and fees coverage and 100% stipend support for the duration of their graduate education.

Financial support for graduate students comes in the form of fellowships, teaching or research assis-tantships, or some combination of fellowship and assistantship support. Financial assistance is award-ed on an annual basis, and is based on merit and satisfactory academic progress. A separate applica-tion for requesting financial aid is not required.

On average, 100% of doctoral students admitted to Caltech are offered a package of merit-based financial support that covers all tuition charges and provides a full stipend. The only major exceptions are students who have external awards, and in these cases Caltech provides supplements if needed up to the level of other students of similar standing. In general, terminal master’s level programs are not funded and most students are self-supported.

• SUPPORT activities that enhance the inclusion of underrepresented, underserved and minorities (URM), women and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) students in all aspects of campus life.

• COLLABORATE with the Caltech community and student affairs support services (both on and off campus) to ensure students are actively engaged and able to access resources that help them achieve their academic and personal goals and to graduate from Caltech.
