Aleksandar Svager Scholarship

The Aleksandar Svager Master’s Degree Scholarship Fund was established to help minority physics majors earn a master’s degree. Mr. Svager tutored students in math and physics at the University of Sarajevo before coming to the United States in 1960 to earn a master’s degree in physics from Texas Christian University. He then went on to become the chair of the physics department at Central State University until he retired in 1996.

Applicants must:

• be a minority student (African American, Hispanic American or Indigenous) graduating with a degree in physics,
• be a United States citizen,
• have a minimum GPA of 3.0 based upon a 4.0 scale, and
• be accepted to an accredited physics master’s degree program.
