Summer Research Fellowships
Submissions for the 2023 Fellowships are due March 10.
The Summer Research Fellowships are designed to support an immersive scholarly activity/original research experience during the summer for undergraduate students working with a faculty mentor. The fellowship is intended to create an opportunity for significant progress on a scholarly activity.
The fellowship provides funding for a scholarship up to $3,000 that can be used to cover summer tuition, plus up to an additional $500 to be used for purchases that support the scholarly activity.
Recipients must enroll in at least 1 credit hour in a summer term. The scholarship will then be disbursed to the student via Financial Aid.
