The ongoing partnership fosters the development of tomorrow’s next generation of medical science research leaders.

 The Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Foundation is pleased to continue its partnership with UWorld for a second year to support this nation's next generation of medical science research leaders.

"UWorld’s 2025 donation of over $70,000 in grants and product scholarships provided through its philanthropic arm, UWorld Cares, helps ensure that additional students can pursue their M.D./Ph.D. research career dreams and that the nation will have the research talent it needs to compete globally,” said Dr. John Yopp, Chair of the Foundation’s Board of Trustees.

UWorld's donation gives best-in-class resources for the 2025 cohort of Goldwater Scholars. As part of the ongoing partnership, UWorld will provide some Goldwater Scholars pursuing a M.D./Ph.D. access to its MCAT QBank and newly released MCAT UBooks, which include six print and digital MCAT science review books with high-impact visuals and two annotated CARS review books. Eight Goldwater Scholars will also receive access to UWorld's USMLE Step 1 QBank. These resources will assist scholars as they prepare for their graduate school entrance and professional licensure exams that serve as crucial checkpoints for their future success.

"Investing in these talented individuals is a critical investment in the future of STEM," said Dr. Chandra S. Pemmasani, UWorld's founder and CEO. "We believe our support of Goldwater Scholars will help them achieve their goals in pursuing a medical research career and significantly contribute to their fields."

For over 38 years, the Goldwater Scholarship Foundation has fostered the development of future research leaders in science, engineering, and mathematics by identifying, encouraging, and financial supporting exceptional college sophomores and juniors. The foundation has awarded nearly 11,000 scholarships, providing crucial financial assistance to promising young talent in these fields, with many Goldwater Scholars going on to earn prestigious awards like the Rhodes Scholarship, NSF Graduate Research Fellowship, Astronaut Scholarship, and National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship and ultimately pursuing PhDs.

Since initially partnering with the Foundation, UWorld Cares has provided $140,000 in grants and product scholarships to support Goldwater scholars. The partnership underscores UWorld's commitment to driving success in education by investing in the communities it serves through its company-wide philanthropic efforts. Since 2020, UWorld has provided $12.8 million in product scholarships, facilitated over 2,200 employee volunteer hours and generated over $500,000 in combined company and employee donations. Through these efforts, the company has collectively served over 100,000 youth in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
