The Robert Miner Scholarship:
Click Here: Robert Miner Scholarship Application

Is an endowed scholarship program that provides financial assistance to undergraduate and graduate students in Roosevelt University 's Department of Computer Science and Telecommunications. It established in 2000 by a generous gift from Roosevelt alumna Florence Miner. The scholarship honors Ms. Miner's brother, Robert Miner, the co-founder of Oracle Corporation. Along with his partner, Lawrence Ellison, Robert Miner founded Software Development Labs. In 1977, this start-up company became Oracle, which today is the world's second largest independent software company. Mr. Miner died prematurely in 1994, leaving behind his tight-knit family and a highly successful computer software company.

By helping young computer science students realize their educational dreams and become the leaders of tomorrow, Ms. Miner sees the scholarship as a wonderful way to give something back to her alma mater and also honor the pioneering spirit of her late brother.

You must be an admitted Roosevelt University undergraduate or graduate student who is majoring in a program in the Department of Computer Science and Telecommunications. A complete FAFSA application must be on file with supporting documentation.

Scholarship recipients may be invited and expected to attend a reception for awardees with members of Robert Miner's family.
