Full expense scholarships will be provided for elected foreign students in a special seven week program to be held at Michigan State in Lansing this summer, it was announced yesterday.

The program, called the "Institute for Foreign Junior Technicians," will be held under the joint auspices of Point IV, local governments and private industry.
