Imagine the impact of empowering an undergraduate student with a transformative summer research fellowship—a unique opportunity to work closely with a dedicated faculty mentor for eight weeks. This fellowship offers a stipend of $4000 to the student, along with $500 designated for crucial research supplies. Additionally, the faculty mentor receives $1500 to guide and support the student's research journey.
But it doesn't stop there. The Office of Research further enhances this experience by supplementing on-campus housing costs and organizing weekly professional development workshops. These workshops cover vital skills such as effective research communication, ethical decision-making, networking, and career preparation, nurturing well-rounded scholars.
Furthermore, students are encouraged and supported in presenting their research at prestigious off-campus academic conferences during the following academic year, enriching their academic portfolio and networking opportunities.
Your generous donation of $6,000 will wholly fund one undergraduate research fellowship for an entire summer. Your support directly fuels the aspirations of driven students, providing them with invaluable experiences, mentorship, and resources crucial for their academic and professional growth.
By contributing, you're not just funding a fellowship; you're investing in the future of budding researchers, empowering them to explore, learn, and contribute meaningfully to their fields.
