The McNair internship experience will provide ample opportunity for you to develop skills normally associated with students in advanced degree programs.  Rarely do undergraduate students participate in on-going research, collaborate with faculty members, publish professional papers, travel to professional conferences and network with leaders in their field.

·                    Receipt of various materials that will provide resources for your graduate school search and application

·                    Access to ETSU faculty and administration that will support your application to graduate school

·                    The opportunity to meet individuals from across the country and beyond!

·                    Entry into an elite organization of scholars that will remain accessible to you for a life-time!
