EnMed Scholarships
The Brown Foundation provides School of Engineering Medicine (EnMed) scholarships to select Brown Scholars pursuing engineering majors who are interested in a first-of-its-kind program integrating engineering innovation with medical education to prepare a new kind of physician—the “Physicianeer.” EnMed students simultaneously earn a master’s degree in engineering and a medical degree through an accelerated four-year curriculum.
Through the E2EnMed Early Assurance Program, the Brown Foundation identifies and selects exceptional high school and sophomore applicants who apply and interview for the program. Selected students receive conditioned admission to EnMed by the EnMed Admissions Committee. Texas A&M has granted the Brown Foundation the opportunity to have up to 15 Brown Scholars in each class enroll in EnMed. EnMed scholarships are conditioned upon students meeting the academic and other requirements of both EnMed and the Brown Foundation.
Currently, 20 Brown Scholars are enrolled in EnMed, with more than 50 additional Brown Scholars participating in the E2EnMed Early Assurance Program and expected to matriculate to the School of Engineering Medicine.
For the 2025-2026 academic year, E2EnMedEAP Brown Scholars scored a MCAT average of 520 - 97 percentile, and the cumulative GPA was 3.982

**HM SURI is a nationally competitive medical research program that affords students the opportunity to conduct research in their area of interest. The Brown Foundation awards an additional HM SURI scholarship to participating Brown Scholars. HM SURI priority is given to Brown Scholars admitted to E2EnMedEAP. However, if there are available slots, pre-med Brown Scholars may be admitted.

CRAIG BROWN AND SUZANNE SMITH ENMED CAPSTONE Innovator AWARDS Program at Houston Methodist
Capstone innovation projects address medical needs identified by research investigators at the Houston Methodist Research Institute who may also be in collaboration with Texas A&M faculty.
Interested EnMed students apply to Houston Methodist detailing their 2-year project description and budgetary needs. Students with approved projects receive mentorship, lab space and funding from Houston Methodist and are also responsible for progress updates to ensure project compliance.
Each individual or team member who is selected as Outstanding Capstone Project receives an award and $5,000 and an additional award and $5,000 is given to the Outstanding Faculty Mentor at a Capstone Awards dinner at Houston Methodist.
